Wow!

he got fired over one line. I hope they can sleep soundly at night

Wow you think he is not at fault?

Its a Wiiware game. If you cant give your own opinion over a fucking Wiiware game then you shoulnt be reviewing games.

No! there should have been some kind of punishment, but i do not think he should have been fired. 

 

The real question is journalistic ethics and how well trusted the writer is. when a journalist breaches ethics it is as serious as a cop who shop lifts or a lawyer who abuses the law. Our society  needs people in a variety of professions to uphold strictest standards so that we can trust them. If we cannot trust them, they are effectively unable to do their job. If he was not fired he would have caused everyone connected with his work to become suspect undoing not just his work- but he work of his  co-workers as well. A swift firing and public apology is the only course of action in a case like this.
