Jack Welch Quits Fortune Magazine After Questioning Jobs Report

Jack Welch, the former CEO of General Electric, will no longer contribute to Fortune magazine after he questioned whether the Obama administration had meddled with the jobs report that came out Friday, a senior editor at Fortune announced Tuesday.

Welch said he will no longer contribute to Fortune following critical coverage of the former CEO of General Electric, saying he would get better "traction" elsewhere.
