I thought it was a story about the viewers being angry their "fake world" was being pushed aside for the "real world."

But, it was the execs, and since there was previous instructions and such, looks like the guy had it comin.

Sucks to have your career snuffed by a bunch of fatasses pissed at having their show interrupted with breaking historic news...

Sounds to me like the individual broke explicitly defined company policy.

His death was no surprise, & they had a policy in place to deal with it.

He/She deserved to be fired.

If you cared to read the article, he broke protocol and deserved to be fired, regardless of the situation.
