CEO: &quot;I&#x27;ve not been personally involved in Talia being let go and it was not because she posted a Medium letter directed at me.&quot;<p>A coincidence is possible, but doesn&#x27;t <i>sound</i> at all likely (&quot;the CEO didn&#x27;t personally get involved&quot; sounds like a very specific claim). It is, OTOH, indeed possible that other events were at work - &quot;post hoc, ergo propter hoc;&quot; that the two events might have another (undisclosed) common cause.<p>In other words: the data we have is of the &quot;he said, she said&quot; type...and a lot of emotional filters on all sides (inc. the readers). A strange game.
