The New Yorker is facing criticism after a trove of deleted social-media posts by staff writer Doreen St. Felix resurfaced this week. Screenshots circulating online show the 33-year-old journalist writing that “whiteness fills me with a lot of hate,” declaring “I hate white men,” and making comments widely interpreted as antisemitic. The messages, most of which date to 2014, re-emerged after St. Felix on 2 August labeled actress Sydney Sweeney an “Aryan princess” in a piece for the magazine. St. Felix deleted her account on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, on 15 August after the posts began to spread on conservative media outlets such as the New York Post and Daily Mail. The controversy has reignited debate over whether mainstream publications apply consistent standards when hiring and retaining writers who have posted racially charged remarks. Condé Nast and The New Yorker have not publicly addressed the matter, and St. Felix could not be reached for comment. Critics are calling for the magazine to explain its vetting process and clarify whether the views expressed in the archived posts violate company policy on workplace discrimination.
