Yes, it was right.
Tom needs some major therapy. Oh yeah, he doesn't believe in it.

It's a joke. Actors no longer work under contract for studios (like they did in the old days), so he can't be "fired". Power has shifted away from the studios and almost completely TO the stars, agents and directors. Most major actors can now dictate what movies they want to make, (often) what director they want to work for, script approval, etc., and the studios now feel lucky to help them make and distribute the films (and earn a percent of the gross along the way). It took Cruise all of one day to find a new money source for his future films. How long will it take Paramount to find another star who can guarantee a huge opening weekend?

He is a good actor. And since this scientology nonsence has come to light, it seems our once popular for all the right reasons Tom Cruise, has gotten over shadowed by take my foot, and shove it firmly into my mouth, with some leftover for Kate, Tom Cruise...
Its too bad too, because I don't even want to see any more of his movies, and I'm pretty non bias when it comes to talent versus personality. But everytime he opens his mouth, off the set. The most moronic garbage seems to fly out...
I'm sure he is not all bad though, just pasionate for some shallow kind of nonsence, that any logical thinking, semi educated, carbon based life form wouldn't buy into on a bet...

They are a corporation and it is their money. If a person is causing problems for them and losing money it is easier for them to get someone else that is not. It is not about right or wrong to a corporation. It is just about money to them. When you figure that out about corporations all of them you will be a much happier person. If he was making money for them they would not have cared what he did.
It is all about money. There is not right and wrong for corporations. If the person gets sued that is money. It is all money. If people dislike him enough and boycott him and do not go to his movies it makes them lose money. That is the only reason they care.

Yeah they had a right to fire him because it is their money.
If you hired someone in your home to work and they did nothing would you have a right to fire them? Get the idea? Does your boss have the right to fire you if you scare all the customers away? Get the idea? It is a business. They can do whatever they want.

That's very subjective.
I think so. Corporations want to project a certain image, and Tom was potentially damaging to it. It's also debated as to how successful he was being for them.
