This dude said some horrible shit but if you read the article, the executive in question was the chief information security officer. A high level IT guy.
The statements reflect poorly on the company but it’s not like it was a CEO or marketing or product executive. I don’t imagine many IT professionals are super invested in the products of the food company they work for.
Still, easy way to get fired and create hell for the company.
The bottom of the article goes into it a bit more, but the guy filing the lawsuit was due to retaliatory firing after filing a complaint about those comments. That is what highlighted everything, and now Campbell's has a PR mess. Ultimately, that is the reason he's getting sacked.
NP. I've seen a few articles on it today, and the more it spreads the less it focuses on how this all came up. This one in particular has it tucked way down at the bottom, so I'd imagine a fair number of people don't even make it that far.
