[QUOTE="inactive, post: 2366581, member: 7488"] 2 things: 1) Well yea, you could likely terminate employment of anyone (muslim, christian, whatever) if they were on TV or in print calling for the execution of a group of people. So long as you state that the behavior is not in line with the standard of decorum you with to keep for employees of your business. It's what someone SAYS that gives employers right to fire them, not necessarily the religious beliefs themselves. 2) Who really knows for sure, but I'd betcha Phil was NOT an employee of the network. People in a contract for filming rights and acting rights are usually operating as their own firm or as an individual contractor under contract with the network and production company. They usually are not simply employees like most everyone else that goes to work an 8 to 5 job. That changes things A LOT. [/QUOTE]
