I think he would have been far more effective by NOT resigning.
I also don’t understand why these guys who end up with difficult-to-defend positions, why they don’t just buy a quick GoDaddy website. They can put all their defensive stuff up on that website and when they get asked about it, say that it’s all up on http://www.MediaCanKissMyAss.com or whatever URL they buy.
He got really bad advice when he agreed to resign and allowed himself to be “cancelled”. You only win when you fight hard from the beginning of the assault. You already lost and are on the defensive when you seek justice from some biased judge.
Once you resign it weakens your case. Make them fire you and then sue for wrongful termination.
