The CEO of a telemedicine company was fired Monday after he was seen on video appearing to harass a teenage boy who wore a dress to his prom Saturday night, saying the teenager looked like an “idiot.” The man, who has been identified as VisuWell CEO Sam Johnson, has been “terminated” from his job according to a statement from VisuWell. “We unequivocally condemn the behavior exhibited by Sam Johnson in a recent video widely circulated on social media.
After investigating the matter and speaking to individuals involved, the VisuWell BOD has chosen to terminate Mr. Johnson from his position as CEO, effective immediately,” the company said in a statement.
