Northbeach:
You lost me at your rather extremist response and the use "hatred" towards someone simply providing a more whole view of the individual making a complaint.
I hesitated to comment on this story when first posted due to the fact that I knew that there may be more than the first press release (rather like our rather pathetic Jet Blue attendant).
There may be more to this story than just the "Fired because I told the truth!!" meme. Heaven knows you're speaking to an audience that heard that Duncan Holley was dismissed because he was simply a member of a union.
Dismissing individuals because they wish to inform others of this individual's public beliefs hardly helps her cause. I would suggest offering facts that this dismissal was simply not due to her statement.
Substantive arguements and assertions are rather wonderful.
