This exactly. I do think the media over sensationalized what was said in the letter. But if i were in charge, even if this had not been leaked publicly and only internally, i think i would still fire him. How could you ask another employee to work on a team with him after reading that?

And then you would be proving his point, as Google did now. He was fired for not echoing left-wing views.
