Huh? People get fired all the time in corporate America for saying something offensive. You don't have to even have a reason for firing someone in most states, so offending your coworkers is certainly one way of asking for it.

I think this decision definitely was based on finances. Cast members were threatening to walk because they apparently didn't like I. Washington. If they walk, the show goes down the tubes and that's definitely a financial loss for ABC. Again, in corporate America people are fired all the time for not working well with coworkers.
