By preemptively making a stink about it to the media that's exactly what he was doing. It was no mistake he did that. He put his employer who, in a civilised society, was likely left with no option but to let him go.

Regarding "sticking to your own beliefs" if your beliefs make you discriminate against other people I'm not sure why a company should have to bow to your bigotry. He's welcome to find employment with a company that shares his beliefs, should a company based on such beliefs exist and be able to keep enough customers to survive.
