@dave-lindell CNN reports that problematic emails were found over an 8 year period.?ÿAnother sports news site (which I can't find again) said they were dated between 2011 and 2018.?ÿ

It's got nothing to do with PC. You screw up and make your bosses look bad, expect some consequences. I'm pretty open about problems within my own organization, including leadership decisions. Not everyone likes that, at times including my own supervisor. I could get fired at any time if someone decides that they don't like what I say. But if you stand by your views, it doesn't make a difference.
It's football. It's a game, it's entertainment, it's in the public eye, and it's subject to the vicissitudes of public opinion, because that's what makes money for the NFL, which has made it pretty clear that's all it cares about. If you're in the public eye, you better pay attention. Having a public following and supporters doesn't automatically make one right, nor should it automatically save you if you screw up. And let's not forget that it wasn't a single incident, but multiple incidents over the past decade. That's not exactly ancient history.

Sure it does.?ÿ Gruden's boss will say he accepted the resignation because he doesn't want a sexist homophobe on the payroll but the real reason is because he (or the NFL) thinks they will lose money if Gruden stays.
I'm not disagreeing with the points you make, I just think the facade that businesses put up is laughable.
@dave-lindell I wonder if it stems back to the Raiders getting fined half a mil for not wearing NFL mandated face coverings as required. It never made much sense to me to allow spitting on each other on the field and then go to the sideline and put a face covering on.

Well yeah that's just one example in a long line of examples of the clown show that the virus "crisis" has been.?ÿ ?????ÿ
Goodell took it personally and sent the goons to ferret out some dirt, any thing that could be taken out of context even
Gruden is just collateral damage in Dan Snyder's inept war against his former team president, Bruce Allen.?ÿ
The emails (in a redacted form) were part of a court pleading filed by Snyder's legal team back in June to try get Allen to be disposed about his role/knowledge in stories planted in the media tying Snyder to Jeffry Epstein. Snyder believe they were planted by one of his previous minority ownership partners to try and get full control of the team.
The first email was released by a WSJ reporter who had written a puff-piece on Snyder earlier this year. "Coincidently" the new Washington director of publicity is a former?ÿ WSJ employee.
Just like everything Dan Snyder touches, however, it backfired and turned to s**t
