So, I was off on the drugs thing. But, it's very similar to the Sook-Yin Lee episode.
From the previously linked Ghomeshi twitter...
Quote:
CBC execs confirmed that the information provided showed that there was consent. In fact, they later said to me and my team that there is no question in their minds that there has always been consent. They said they’re not concerned about the legal side. But then they said that this type of sexual behavior was unbecoming of a prominent host on the CBC. They said that I was being dismissed for "the risk of the perception that may come from a story that could come out." To recap, I am being fired in my prime from the show I love and built and threw myself into for years because of what I do in my private life.

I really don't see why somebody's law abiding sex life should have any bearing on their ability to do a job.
