They claim he was fired for his remarks. And Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are happy to agree with that. But, who knows how different it would have been if the advertisers kept quiet and kept paying?
And I do agree with you. Censorship sucks. But like most say, he had the right to say what he said and the public had the right to not buy from the advertisers and the advertisers had the right to stop advertising.
I think hidden deep in this outrage, it was all just a business decision.
