\"Nathan J. Robinson, editor-in-chief of the socialist magazine Current Affairs, has fired most of its staff for trying to start a worker co-op, workers wrote in a letter posted on Twitter on Wednesday morning.\
\
\"We, the former full and part-time staff, write to you with deep sadness and disappointment about the recent events that have occurred at Current Affairs,\" a letter signed by five fired staffers said.\

Yes, we were fired by the editor-in-chief of a socialist magazine for trying to start a worker co-op.\" \"\
