People in the media have clauses in their contract that allow them to be dismissed for any behavior that their employer feels reflects poorly on them. It's called the "moral clause"
True and a lot of companies also have employment at will statements in them. Basically, the employer or employee can terminate employment at anytime for any reason or no reason at all.
It's just a sad day when telling the truth on how you personally feel about a situation violates some companies "moral clause". Sounds like a contradictory in terms to me.
I'm hope you were just as upset when Bill Maher was fired for saying the 9/11 terrorists were not cowards. Tiger Woods lost endorsement deal when the public found out he banged every girl he came in contact with.
BTW, no one is forced to sign such contracts. No one held a gun to Juan Williams head. He wanted the money, so he agreed to "watch what he says".
