@TJ_Knight: Major love and respect to the Polish MP’s who co-ordinated their outfits to create a rainbow flag at the swearing in for their homophobic president Andrzej Duda
Contributing writer Priya Krishna, contributing food editor Rick Martinez, and assistant food editor Sohla El-Waylly told Business Insider that they will no longer appear in videos.
They represent three of the six people of color who are regularly featured on the Test Kitchen videos.
The contract battles for Krishna and Martinez lasted five weeks, they said. Both received identical contracts at different times that reflected a new pay structure: a $1,000 day rate for hosted videos; $625 for videos in which other talent members made an appearance of two minutes or longer; and $0 for videos in which their appearances were shorter than two minutes. The contract was reviewed by Business Insider.
In the same contract that outlined their daily rate, it also guaranteed 10 video appearances per year. This differed from the contracts reviewed by Martinez that some of their white peers receive where guaranteed appearances total up to 60, he said.
According to Martinez and Krishna, this would have meant a pay cut for Martinez and a very slight bump for Krishna. Ultimately, they said they would still be paid less than their white counterparts.

Following contract negotiations that have lasted five weeks, three of Bon Appétit's Test Kitchen stars are departing the wildly popular video channel.
Contributing writer Priya Krishna, contributing food editor Rick Martinez, and assistant food editor Sohla El-Waylly told Business Insider that they will no longer appear in videos.
They represent three of the six people of color who are regularly featured on the Test Kitchen videos.
El-Waylly will stay in her role writing recipes and other content for Bon Appétit's magazine and website, while Krishna and Martinez will continue to freelance on the brand's editorial side.

The contract battles for Krishna and Martinez lasted five weeks, they said. Both received identical contracts at different times that reflected a new pay structure: a $1,000 day rate for hosted videos; $625 for videos in which other talent members made an appearance of two minutes or longer; and $0 for videos in which their appearances were shorter than two minutes. The contract was reviewed by Business Insider.
Condé Nast Entertainment management told the entire Bon Appétit video talent of the new structure in a Zoom call on June 18. These rates constituted the base pay — meaning some were eligible to earn more per appearance than what was outlined above. Martinez and Krishna said they would have received only that base pay.
In the same contract that outlined their daily rate, it also guaranteed 10 video appearances per year. This differed from the contracts reviewed by Martinez that some of their white peers receive where guaranteed appearances total up to 60, he said.
