It's a new era at Netflix. After just a year, Netflix CMO Jackie Lee-Joe is leaving the company for personal reasons, according to a spokesperson. Her replacement has one of the most sterling reputations in the marketing community: Bozoma Saint John. Her history includes more than 20 years of experience in the industry, holding titles such as CMO of Endeavor and chief brand officer for Uber.

Her arrival at Netflix comes at a critical time for both Netflix and the industry.

With brands like Aunt Jemima dropping their slavery-era mascots, it's no wonder that pressure has mounted against the Washington Redskins to stop using the racist slur in its branding. Incongruously, coach Ron Rivera spoke out against the killing of George Floyd and said "the time is now" to address racial injustice—but then said the team's name was a discussion for "another time."

Adweek reached out to 10 apparel brands, including Nike, DKNY and Under Armour, that license Redskins merchandise, many of which have publicly supported Black Lives Matter. Only one of the 10 responded: Touch by Alyssa Milano. Milano herself wrote in an email that she asked licensing company GIII to stop producing Redskins merchandise, but that contractually brands can't pick and choose among NFL teams.

An ugly history: Learn about the Redskins' disturbing past, and the ongoing efforts to see the name dropped.

In more positive sports branding news, the Fab Five have worked their wholesome magic on Gritty, the fluffy and belovedly unkempt orange mascot of the Philadelphia Flyers. In an 8-minute short film that's being promoted across the NHL's social and digital channels, the Queer Eye crew sees to Gritty's grooming, fashion, health and space—but they found less to change than you might think (which shouldn't come as a surprise if you read the definitive history of how the Flyers created him in 2018).

The sun has set on Rubicon Project, and in its place stands Magnite, the result of a merger with Telaria. Rubicon was one of the heavy hitters of the ad-tech era, blazing the trail for how publishers would come to monetize online media. After highly profitable times in the early 2000s, Rubicon encountered more challenging times as the industry matured. Its journey illustrates the need to put customer experience first and avoid fixating on superfluous industry norms.
