My former boss, Mark Galli, sexually harassed multiple women at Christianity Today, according to this CT report (for which I was a minor corroborating source). Unlike the partial whitewash editorial and related independent report, this thorough article by Daniel Silliman and Kate Shellnutt names names–though not, apparently, all the names that were involved in a corporate culture that repeatedly turned a blind eye toward abusive behavior toward women.
All this from a magazine that prided itself on being an advocate of women and egalitarianism. This article is a good start, and I am grateful that the new leaders at CT are confessing past misdeeds, but I await further reporting. I am also praying for the victims to receive both healing and justice.
Galli, you may recall, wrote an editorial excoriating Donald Trump for his poor character. After he retired from CT, Galli also garnered headlines by converting to Roman Catholicism (a road he was traveling while editor in chief of CT, the magazine of “evangelical conviction”).
