Andy Cohn, president and publisher of the Fader, has resigned following sexual harassment allegations spanning almost a decade
As multiple current and former employees who wish to remain anonymous told Jezebel, severalstaffers resigned following the initial report; others chose to avoid the office after a series of tense meetings with management.
In addition to allegations that Cohn overlooked abuse, multiple employees recall an instance of overt harassment. As Jezebel initially reported, one former employee alleged that in 2011, Cohn had attempted to remove his pants in front of staff at the CMJ music festival. When a staffer complained to the company’s chief financial officer, who at the time also acted as its HR representative, the disclosure resulted in retribution, the employee said.
n Cohen’s email said the company would now be working to improve HR in order to encourage employees to report misconduct. Jezebel also found that prior to hiring Eric Sundermann, who left the magazine in early November, multiple employees warned Cohn, among others in charge, of an investigation into Sundermann’s sexual misconduct while he was the editor-in-chief of Noisey, Vice’s music site. The Fader says it will now hire outside consultants to vet potential job candidates. In addition, The Fader says it will also implement diversity training to all staff and require managers to complete communications training.
