Miss America CEO resigns over offensive emailsThe top leadership of the Miss America Organization has resigned, sweeping out officials implicated in an email scandal that targeted past pageant winners for abuse based on their appearance, intellect and sex lives. MATT SAYLES/AP Mallory Hagan, 2013's Miss America, was repeatedly disparaged in leaked emails sent by pageant head Sam Haskell. Caressa Cameron, crowned Miss America in 2010, says her troubles with Haskell began 30 days into her reign. Much of the Huffington Post report focused on Haskell's ire with the 2013 Miss America, Mallory Hagan. Cameron says she and a group of other former Miss America winners have organised to demand the resignations of the entire board and leadership team.
