Was he sacked for expressing private opinions?

CNN s Jim Clancy resigns after anti-Israel tweets - Israel News Ynetnews

Veteran CNN anchor Jim Clancy issued a statement Friday saying he is leaving the network, where he has worked for 34 years, one week after he was involved in a controversial debate on Twitter with pro-Israeli activists over the attack on satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo in Paris.

One wonders if his sudden departure is because he wasn't allowed to tweet about a given group.

Opinion?

About what? He's a public figure working for a major media outlet. A obviously biased reporter is anathema, they have to keep their biases under wraps.

Hell, I thought the thread would be on Jason Avant, cut from the Panthers for speaking his mind about the coaching.

They could have used his experience and sure hands in the playoff game they lost.

"Free Speech" is a very weak claim here in America. Watch what you say, or "Busted". Opinions are something that can get one into serious trouble. Guard your tongue, or else pay the consequences. It's just the way it is here in our "No free speech state called America".

So it had nothing to do with him breaking his contract.

Sure.

Perhaps you could explain.

It could very well have been.

Maybe a CNN employee needs 35 years to collect a pension.

Nobody but nobody may dare criticize Israel in any way, shape, or manner. You can belittle Christians; you can openly hate Muslims; you can poke fun at Buddhists or Hindus; you can bash Catholics; but making disparaging or critical remarks about Israel or Judaism is absolute taboo and 100% politically incorrect. You will do well to remember that if you want to avoid being called "anti-Semitic" or a "Jew-hater" or some other name (whether you are or are not).

Had Clancy been critical of Christians or Sweden or the Pope or England he would still be employed.

anyone know why this Clancy guy left his job>=?

Hey ... that's not politically correct. Tow the line bud or someone will call you a name.
