He lost his job for a reason that had nothing to do with his performance, nothing to do with any of his actions in the workplace, nothing to do with his employer's on-the-job requirements, and everything to do with appeasing a Twitter mob.

If you are incapable of seeing the difference, I guess we have nothing to discuss.
I'm pretty confident that MLSE includes as a requirement for every high profile position in its organization that employees not publicly say or do things which harm the reputation and brand of MLSE. Maybe a requirement to generally show good judgment as well? Seems perfectly reasonable to me.

In fact, there's a pretty compelling argument that MLSE was stupid (and failed to fulfill its duty to its shareholders) by hiring Imoo in the first place. Failing to terminate him in the face of clear damage to the organization would be an even worse dereliction of duty
