No matter where you look, there's a scandal. Now it's the Red Cross:
Red Cross President and CEO Mark W. Everson has stepped down after revelations he was "engaged in a personal relationship with a subordinate employee," the organization announced Tuesday.Come again? (What did you expect, a serious piece? Oh! Did I just say "piece"?)
By the way, the "other woman" is still employed there.
Everson, 53, said in a written statement that he was leaving the $500,000-per-year job "for personal and family reasons, and deeply regret it is impossible for me to continue in a job so recently undertaken."
Everson -- who is married and has two children -- joined the Red Cross as president and CEO last May.How unusual! A Republican family man with a secret lover!
About Everson, [Chief Public Affairs Officer Suzy C.] DeFrancis said, "We're grateful for his service."
