Gretchen Carlson and her entire board on Miss America should resign
Just hours after Miss America chairwoman Gretchen Carlson hit out at reigning Miss America Cara Mund over claims that she has been bullied and silenced, 19 former pageant winners have demanded that the entire board of the organization resign.Read more, and know how awful Carlson and company really are. They should all start packing their bags and not darkening the headquarters of the pageant's board ever again, nor should they be forcing transgender ideology upon it as they may be planning. No beauty pageant should have to be soiled as Carlson and Hopper clearly want to do.
Caressa Cameron-Jackson, who won the Miss America title in 2010, went on Good Morning America Monday and demanded that Carlson and Miss America Organization CEO Regina Hopper step down.
'I feel as though all of the leadership is complicit in this, and in order for us to move forward and to actually heal, we need to do the right thing right now, so that we can move forward and focus on who's gonna be crowned Miss America on September 9,' Cameron-Jackson told GMA's Paula Faris.
This latest development comes after Mund released a letter on Friday complaining of how she has been treated during her nearly one year reign as Miss America.
When Faris called into question the timing of the former pageant winners’ collective demand for a leadership shakeup, so close to this year’s contest, Cameron-Jackson replied: 'it's never the wrong time to do the right thing.
‘And let's be clear: just because we are asking for our chair and our CEO to step down does not mean that Miss America pageant will not happen, and I think it will send a clear message not only to our new Miss America but to the public that we are willing to do the right thing so that Miss America who is crowned on September 9 will not have to go through what Cara has gone through.’
In her missive addressed to former pageant winners, Mund wrote that she has been bullied, manipulated and silenced by the pageant's current top leadership, headed by Carlson and Hopper.
