There he goes,Mother Miss America Organization CEO Sam Haskell.
Haskell had been suspended Friday after a HuffPost story detailed his email correspondence over the years leading the beauty pageant. His leaked emails included many sexist, offensive comments about contestants and winners.

Board chairman Lynn Weidner also offered her resignation, but she will remain on for up to 90 days to help "facilitate a smooth transition." Weidner had been involved in targeting Miss America 2013 Mallory Hagan, whom Haskell and other MAO colleagues had insulted because of her weight after she won the competition.
Weidner had also been vocal in her support for Haskell over the years.

Former Fox News host and 1989 Miss America winner Gretchen Carlson had also been targeted along with 1998 winner Kate Shindle, who wrote a book in 2014 that criticized the organization's spending, as the emails show. Haskell once wrote how he wished Shindle had died instead of a former winner who passed away of breast cancer.
Carlson has been calling for Haskell's resignation and commented on her and Shindle's behalf when today's announcement was made. She said the move was a first step but "by no means fulfills the need for a thorough housecleaning of the Board."
