>Everyone hated the CEO for firing him because people like the fantasy of the genius creative against the evil CEO
John was also his own best hype man. He was probably a lot of peoples' first introduction to analysis when it came to art/design theory. He posted about various topics on his blog and a lot of people got the wrongful impression that these were his original concepts and that he was some sort of mega-genius. Furthermore, he seemed to never pass up the opportunity to shit on everything else, so people who couldn't see through his bullshit took that to mean that he knew better than everyone else.

In reality, he stalled at "has great potential" and was never really able to go beyond that because he was unable to perform the basic duties of his position. Nobody gives a shit how "brilliant" you are if you can't deliver on time, under budget, and you suck to work with.

And for the John K fanboys who want to proclaim that "real art" takes time and all that, what the fuck has John done since then? He's had 30 years and has yet to produce a great masterwork. John needs structure and discipline because he grew up with a very strict father. Bakshi fulfilled that role for awhile, but then John struck out on his own. Nickelodeon decided it wasn't their job to be his daddy, so they let him go. Without some serious therapy, John was never going to be able to be the head boss.
