An article in Philadelphia magazine, Being White in Philly, has prompted a public rebuke from city Mayor Michael Nutter, who called its tone "disgusting" and asked a city commission to investigate the racial issues it explores. "I applaud the mayor for asking for an inquiry into the state of racial issues in Philadelphia," said the magazine's editor, Tom McGrath. "[H]is sophomoric statements about the magazine and mischaracterization of the piece make me wonder if he's more interested in scoring political points than having a serious conversation about the issues."
