Josh Randle, the president and COO of the Miss America Organization, has submitted his resignation, a source familiar with the matter tells HuffPost.
Randle’s resignation comes amid a storm of controversy surrounding the Miss America Organization less than 48 hours after HuffPost published a story revealing that emails, mostly sent by Miss America Organization CEO Sam Haskell, contained misogynistic language, slut shaming and fat shaming.
The board on Friday suspended Haskell, pending an investigation into the emails. Board member Tammy Haddad has resigned.
