Alexi McCammond, ousted at Teen Vogue over social media posts, returns to Axios

Alexi McCammond — who resigned as editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue in March days before she started the job after an uproar over racially charged social media posts — is returning to her former job as a political reporter for Axios.

On Tuesday, Axios — where McCammond had notable bouts with everyone from Donald Trump to former NBA star Charles Barkley since starting in 2017 — said it was happy to have her back. She had been working at NBC News since her Teen Vogue withdrawal. “Alexi McCammond is an accomplished journalist and professional,” Axios co-founder and CEO Jim VandeHei said. “We’re excited and proud that she is returning to Axios.”
