How would you like it if you were getting laid off from your job and someone made a comment like that? Have a little sympathy for these people losing their jobs regardless of who they work for...
I'd show sympathy...but AOL is a business that should've long been dead already. The writing was way beyond just being on the wall at this point. I'm personally running short finding sympathy for folks just entering such a flimsy work atmosphere, or haven't taken their years of pay to look for a job with a future.

Why?

I enjoy watching it suffer and bleed to death.

I think he was talking about the company itself rather than the individual employee. Yes, it's never a good thing when someone loses their job, but AOL, as an entity, needs to die already.
