Bari Weiss, who joined the Times in 2017, posted her lengthy resignation letter on her website on Tuesday
She accused the newspaper of fostering an 'illiberal environment' and said the paper of record was among the media institutions now betraying their standards
Weiss also accused the outlet of creating a 'hostile work environment' for employees that had anything other than left-of-center views
She said she was bullied by coworkers who have called her a 'Nazi and a racist' because of her 'own forays into Wrongthink'
Weiss repeatedly drew criticism during her time at the newspaper and most recently tweeted there was a 'civil war' brewing inside the Times
That tweet was in relation to the controversy surrounding the publication of the Tom Cotton op-ed
