Unless they have an employment contract that says otherwise, which is extremely rare in the US, this isn't a reason that a court will side with.

I can pretty much guarantee that their employee agreement had verbiage prohibiting publicly criticizing the company, and that's a legal clause to have.

It's a morally wrong reason to fire someone, but that's the way it is, unfortunately.
