Employees of the local grocery store chain Market Basket are protesting the firing of their longtime CEO, Arthur T. Demoulas.

Monday's ousting of Demoulas, as well as two other top executives, brings a long-running family feud to a head, and employees are outraged.

They say Demoulas always took care of them and put their needs first.

The Market Basket board elected Felicia Thorton as the company's new COO and James Gooch as the new chief administrative officer, which is effective immediately.
