The Atlantic Cuts Ties with Yascha Mounk Amid Rape Allegations

Journalist Celeste Marcus accuses Mounk of rape in 2021, leading to his suspension and eventual severance from the magazine.

The Atlantic magazine has severed ties with Yascha Mounk following allegations of rape made by journalist Celeste Marcus.
Marcus accused Mounk of raping her in June 2021 and detailed her experience in an essay for Liberties, where she serves as managing editor.
Mounk, a political scientist and author known for his criticism of 'woke' ideology, has denied the allegations, calling them 'categorically untrue.'
The Atlantic had suspended its relationship with Mounk, a freelance contributor, last month upon learning of the accusation.
Marcus expressed frustration over the lack of updates and transparency from The Atlantic regarding actions taken following her allegation.
