I don't get why they demonize this man and portray him as this racist evil person. His show is built around (humor) and political absurdity and this country is becoming too emotional about what they hear. Fucking rappers and comedians do the same thing. Why are things not stated about how he's helped people from all different nationalities, or how he has made fun of people from all different nationalities and not just pointed the finger at black people which by the way I am.
Imus is great. It's unfortunate about the Rutgers ordeal. His critics are hypocrites. He's no more racist than assholes like Sharpton and Jackson. Imus shouldn't of had to apologize for shit.
Sid and Bernie made asses of themselves as well...and even though no one seems to be asking for it, did those two goons apologize? Even on their own initiative?
@RaptorQueen You raise a healthy point, but if I'm not mistaken, Rappers have been using these deplorable terms for some time now, and which one of them has been silenced for it? I like rap and I know that the usage of these foul terms are wrong and offensive. As far as me and Don getting offensive at rappers talking about white women in these derogatory ways, They already do! and not just generally about being women they slurr with the use of this becky as in head like a white girl gives.
Nobody got all crazy about that.... I agree, that his type of humor may be too much for regular TV, and as i do not know him personally, you never know he could be racist, but to silence him for saying something not nearly as bad as some others I've heard is a little off scale.
I was watching Oprah and was thinking the same thing. I felt that he should not have been singled out. After this whole thing I am just more sensitive to how you make people feel uncomfortable any race.

Didn’t the dummies in the media not know that Imus was simply quoting Spike Lee?
