Is this the first public firing since Arthur Godfrey's firing of Julius LaRosa?

Similarly tactless, and it gutted the nice-guy image of Arthur Godfrey.

Another crass example: pizza magnate Tom Monahan hired retired U of M football coach Bo Schembechler* as President of his Detroit Tigers baseball team, and fired the legendary football coach by fax.


*That tells you how spell-check works: someone out of sight who was once fantastically famous can fade away.
