Behavior like that is not acceptable for someone in a position of authority at a company no matter what the context. (It's not clear what Moghadam's specific role at Rap Genius was, but he did have a seat on the board of directors)

It's the same reason that we shouldn't let blind people fly commercial airliners. Flying requires vision. Running a company requires good judgement.

Says who? It's not like the company is Disney. For some companies such antics are par for the course (e.g a gangsta rap record company).


Things that are "par for the course" aren't necessarily acceptable, as we all know.


Well, you have to define it then.

"Unaccetable" for running a company with profit, or "unaccptable" for your moral code? Because the former sure ain't the case.
