He might have an argument if such a rule was not evenly enforced, but it's hard to prove that unless you can prove that all the other internet surfers in the office were seen by their supervisors and not reported. Alot of folks use the internet, and alot of them use it without anyone seeing it or looking closely enough to know that it's not work-related.
The fact that they didnt give him any warning is somewhat anal though.....Hey this is your 1st warning dont do that etc....

Their fear drove them to get rid of this guy....nothing more. Maybe he shouldnt have worked for liberals....
