Sewell Chan, the Columbia Journalism Review executive editor, was fired from the publication on Thursday after less than a year in the role, following staff complaints about his behavior, he confirmed Friday.
Jelani Cobb, the dean of the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism, told staff members in an email on Friday that Mr. Chan was “no longer with” CJR, a publication covering the media industry that the school has published since 1961.
“We are most grateful to the CJR staff for their resilience and dedication,” Mr. Cobb said in the email, which was viewed by The New York Times.
