Apparently not fired?

After reaching out to Jaguar a second time, the company issued a statement saying that it has not fired design boss Gerry McGovern. A company spokesperson told Motor1: "It is untrue we have terminated Gerry McGovern’s employment and we do not intend to further comment on speculative stories."

Damn.....now I am even more interested in what's happened over there.

Too bad we don't have any car journalists left for some proper research. What we're stuck with now are bloggers, influencers and fanboy sites.
These people sure as hell won't be able to do any research.

This is truly strange, both Chris Harris and Richard Porter confirmed separately that they were in touch with several JLR employees who confirmed that he was fired.

To anybody’s surprise they got rid of their marketing guy too. Contracts are out to tender.
