I think it was the right move for many reasons.

Should someone hesitate from making the right move if vile people happen to support that move?

I think they should have waited for some cool off or had a 'shadow' CEO or announced this at the same time as a big cut off of some of the worst subs.

This can easily be interpreted as a repudiation of some of the things she tried to do to clean up the site, and that would be a horrible message to send.
