Fallout: As Google Gets Blasted for Intolerance, Media Covers For Them With Lazy Dishonesty

I had quite a lot to say about Google's decision to fire an engineer over his internal memo that addressed several concerns he harbored about the company.  Among them were his views that Google fosters a close-minded and homogenous ideological atmosphere, and that flawed initiatives to achieve greater gender and racial diversity have negative effects.  One of the arguments I've encountered from people who support management's decision to fire James Damore is that he embarrassed the company publicly, so of course they had reason to dismiss him.  But he shared his ten-page analysis within the confines of private, in-house forums encouraged by Google as a means of critiquing policy and challenging leadership without 'going public.'
