David Shor probably got fired because they did not have a disclaimer on their account expressing these are just their opinions.

I once had an employer come after me when I posted a Medium article because of this. Medium appends your bio at the bottom which said, "Working at X, top 25 largest bandwidth consumer."

Employer argued that I was representing the company's opinion and had breached a clause in my employer contract.




He does have the disclaimer


Did he have that disclaimer before and did he have the disclaimer on all places he might have posted or shared the link from?

Easy example would have been Linkedin if it was shared there, his title probably would have said he worked there but not had a disclaimer description on his Linkedin profile.
