There's a huge difference.

The protective media colleagues and trolls that were posting here in defense of CBS used the "CBS fired four employees" line to illustrate CBS supposedly coming down hard on the story when they obviously did not.

The employees are still there, after all. They did not resign, so yes, there's a difference in being fired and resigning (especially when the resignation doesn't come to pass).
