Title: Why Did Facebook Fire a Top Executive? Hint: It Had Something to Do With Trump

Subtitle: Palmer Luckey, co-founder of virtual-reality pioneer Oculus, was ousted after his political activity sparked a furor within the social-media giant and Silicon Valley

The article says it’s because, at the height of the 2016 presidential campaign. he donated $10,000 to an anti Hillary campaign and also supported Trump. The issue of his support was “discussed” at the highest levels of the company - simmering anger in the company etc. 6 months later he was out. First he was put on leave and then fired. Zuckerberg insists it had nothing to do with his politics. With the help of an employment attorney, Palmer Lucky got a 100 million dollar payout.

The odd thing about this article is that it was published at all - since when does that newspaper expose political bias of a tech giant industry like Zuckerberg?
