The editor-in-chief of Bon Appetit, Adam Rapoport, resigned after a photo of him dressed in a stereotypical Puerto Rican costume surfaced on social media. He acknowledged "blind spots" as an editor and said the magazine's staff and readers deserved better leadership. That followed a revolt by many Times employees, some of whom argued that publication of Cotton's argument endangered the lives of Black staff. The Philadelphia Inquirer's top editor resigned Saturday after the paper's staffers pushed back against a "Buildings Matter, Too," headline on a column about buildings damaged in the protests. The headline was a play on the Black Lives Matter movement that the paper acknowledged was "offensive and inappropriate."
