There was some talk of him getting into some deep water about politics on his blog. I had no idea whether it was before or after he was let go from QVC. I guess I'm not an expert.
You made me look. Without seeing the exact comment or responses, it appears that he may have said something about the character of the man in charge. If I have to stereotype his customers, I would think they would be more conservative and was surprised by his differing views. I got the impression that he would just move on from the conversation.
As someone else already brought up, Lisa Rinna is not only political (and has been for a while) but also actively insults anyone responding to her posts and even made headlines (which may be too strong a word) and complained that Q wanted her to tone down and (I think) she said she would not.
So, no, he was not fired for his politics.
