Fox News Exec Who Wrote Inflammatory Olympics Op-Ed Retires

The Fox News executive editor who wrote an anti-diversity op-ed railing against the U.S. Olympic Committee for celebrating a diverse Team USA has retired from the network, CNN reported Thursday.

John Moody, who also served as an executive vice president, made headlines last month when he wrote that the USOC “would like to change” the Olympics slogan from “Faster, Higher, Stronger” to “Darker, Gayer, Different.”

He added, “If your goal is to win medals, that won’t work.”

The column was written in response to the USOC celebrating that Team USA’s Winter Olympics delegation of athletes was the most diverse in the county’s history. The team was overwhelmingly white and far less diverse than the 2016 Summer Olympics team.
