Have I forgotten something? Homer doesn't lose his job, does he?
I thought he lost everything once it's known it was he who spoiler-ed Springfield, though there's no specific 'you're fired' scene. If he still had a job, working and living among a townful of vengence, he'd never be able to flee and there'd be no 'middle eight' of a plotline. So, he does lose his job in the wider sense of the word.

I still think it's too specific a thing to mention when it's not actually shown/indicated in the film. Also, it's more like he quits by default, which isn't the same as losing his job anyway. |

Uhm ... just because you murder your granny doesn't mean you haven't lost her.  
Just saying ...

The review makes a direct point of Homer's losing his job when in actual fact he doesn't (his job is not even mentioned in the film - as far as the film is concerned, he might not even have a job). Had the review read, "Pollution costs Homer Everything," that would have been fine. I'd still deem Josh's review, in its current state, inaccurate.
