Franklin Foer is an author, journalist and current editor of the conservative magazine, the New Republic.[1] TNR editor-in-chief Martin Peretz's decision to give Foer the position (he previously worked for TNR as a staff writer) in 2006 to replace Peter Beinart was reportedly greeted by surprise by many including Foer who "had never edited and wondered why anyone would want to take on an editor’s headaches."[2]
