Gilbert Gottfried was recently fired by them after he made all those offensive remarks (on Twitter) about the disaster in Japan. Some were sexual, ALL were just in bad taste. I could totally understand why an "insurance" company would be embarrassed by this. So, they are having to replace him and I think by making this a national search, it brought more public awareness to the fact that they made this decision as soon as it was brought to their attention.
Some comedians came to his defense....but I don't think there was ANY defense for the stuff he said.
You're right GloryB, and also note that Aflack is Japans #1 insurer, another reason for the flack over Got Fried.
