Former CBS executive and lawyer Hayley Geftman-Gold garnered a firestorm of controversy when she said in a Facebook post that she could not feel sympathy for the victims.

Geftman-Gold, who served as vice president and senior counsel of strategic transactions at CBS, said on Facebook: "I'm actually not even sympathetic [because] country music fans often are Republican gun toters.

"If they wouldn't do anything when children were murdered I have no hope that Repugs will ever do the right thing," she added.

In response to the outrage, CBS announced that Geftman-Gold was fired, labeling her views "unacceptable to all of us at CBS."
