Technically true, but Riot has a (great) reputation to uphold, and it is good business sense to keep that reputation that the players love.
This alleged Riot employee isn't acting in the spirit that the company wants. The last time something like this happened, it was highly publicized and the guy was terminated really really fast. Riot went into damage control mode for a while.
EDIT: Actually it happened over the weekend. In terms of office hours spent, it was really really fast, but the wrong wasn't righted until after a day or two. Their office hours start at 10 am, and Pendragon posted the official announcement that he was terminated by 10:09 am. Given what I know about their people though, many head to the office early mostly out of motivation.
