He was pulled for violating company policy - not the donations. He was supposed to inform executives at the company before donating and didn't do so.

On one hand I can see that - if you're part of the "news" you should probably go with full disclosure.

On the other hand - if my employer had this as a company policy, I would consider it a violation of my civil rights. Who I donate to is my business and my business alone.
