After Bon Appétit's top editor resigned over complaints of racial bias, offensive tweets from Condé Nast's VP surfaced
calling for "an independent outside investigation into racial inequality" at Condé Nast. Adams told Insider that he is not a current or former employee of the company.
Duckor, who is now the head of programming for lifestyle and style at Condé Nast, apologized for the tweets in a statement on Tuesday afternoon, writing that they were over 10 years old. "My words were inappropriate and hurtful. At the time, I thought I was making a joke —but even my 20 year-old self should have seen that the remarks weren't remotely funny," he said on Twitter.
Bon Appétit Assistant Food Editor Sohla El-Waylly said in Instagram stories on Monday that the image of Rapoport's brown face costume was "just a symptom of the systematic racism that runs rampant within the CondeNast as a whole." El-Waylly said that she'd "been pushed in front of video as a display of diversity" and alleged that the company didn't pay nonwhite editors for video appearances.
