Well, we have a great example of that which has played out over the last couple of years. The NFL.

Players have the right to protest or speak politically on their own time all they want. No one has said they don’t. But when they are on the job, then their boss (the team owner) has every right to stop them from pissing off their customers to the point that there is loss of revenue. However, some people have said that the owners DON’T have that right because it’s a free speech issue. It IS a free speech issue, but it is NOT a first amendment issue.

So I ask you, if the NFL is losing money because their employees are saying or doing unpopular things, how long does the NFL have to wait before they can take action to stop the employee from being a liability to their business? Just because you may support their position in this case doesn’t make it ok if many millions of other people don’t agree and stop giving money to the NFL.
