Roger Cohn has quit as editor of the San Francisco-based magazine after five years. Dan Fost reports in the San Francisco Chronicle that Cohn blamed a decision by the board of directors to go in a "new strategic direction." Under Cohn the magazine's circulation nearly doubled to 236,000 and Mother Jones won a National Magazine Award for general excellence in 2001.
