I acknowledged that she said it. I didn't deny it. I think she only said the fans displeasure was taken into account when she fired DA for PR purposes. I don't think it's true. I don't know that it's not.
I think at the most she made the decision to fire DA based solely on what the players and staff told her, then after making the decision she thought "and the fans don't like him, so it's a win win."
