Franklin Foer To Leave The New Republic

Franklin Foer, editor of New Republic, sent out a staff email today announcing his resignation from the magazine.

Comrades,

The New Republic has been one of the great loves of my life–a set of ideas, a history, a collection of people I revere. I grew up here, made my best friends here, and learned so many profound lessons about the world in the process.

Part of the joy has been the struggle: We’ve fought to preserve an institution that was perpetually imperiled.
