re: The Right's next Brendan Eich; newspaper editor fired over anti-gay blog post

It wasn't just the silly spellings, it was the context. That was, at best, an emotionally charged rant and at worst a hateful tantrum. The entire context was demeaning and pious.

Have no problem with the firing if thats what they feel is in their best interest.

Exactly Roger. That's what I'm saying based upon what the publishers revealed as their reason for firing him. He could have eliminated the inane spellings and he would still be history with that paper. Once a newspaper's editor starts calling a segment of its readers sinners, he's a goner.
The goofy acronym and spellings were just that, goofy. But it's not what got him canned. Had he said the same thing san the goofiness, he's still gone.
