It's not the losing his job that's the problem.
Any entertainment organisation can fire anyone at any time, on the basis of public opinion... from a commercial point of view an entertainer's entire purpose is to be popular, and if they're not popular it is not tenable to keep them (though they should have just said that, rather than pretending the tweet was racist).
The problem is intentionally selecting the worst possible interpretation of some facts specifically to paint someone in a bad light, and shouting down any attempt by a person to clarify what they mean because that would require the media to admit that they'd jumped to conclusions and got it wrong.
He mentioned the trustpilot scores of the top 3 television news organisations and none of the papers, but they're not on his side in the slightest. The daily mail has wasted no time; they've already smeared him as a pedo... as has the sun and the mirror. He was referring to all of them, and they know that and they've brought out the biggest gun they can.

I'm not apologising for anyone.
I'm telling you why you're wrong, and how you're thick.
And which cunt in particular?

You don't deserve anything other than straight, unstyled abuse.
The fact that I'm being as civil to you as I am is already rather generous.
