I don't really like Imus, matter of fact I call him Imush, but he does his sttick and has for years without the line of racist, bigot, antisemite,antichristian or anti any ethnic or sexual barrier. He did hold the line on children however. I can not recall or hear of an accusation where he chose to include children in his sttick. I took his show as a way of kicking my mind into gear. Somedays he was conservative, next day from Mars. I hated to listen to him some days and would turn him off for weeks at a time. I missed the remarks he made about the female volleyball or soccer team whatever they were but they happen to be black so he crossed the line(for some unknown reason) and was forced out(after all the good the jerk had done for the kids). Some say his ranch was a way to hide from the IRS and enjoy what he truly loves with a few kids with cancer coming by for a couple of days to qualify him for the tax break) I personally don't think his stupid comments were A. out of line and B. outrageous enough to get him canned,but Sharpton has some mystical voice with enough of those ‘’in the know’’ to bring him down.
Letterman, on the other hand, is an out of the closet liberal who will continue to attack any person who brings the conservative voice to the surface. He attacked George W. Bush every night on his show and was an attack dog with what's his name oh yeah John McCain when he canceled his spot. His constant foolish antics on Gov.Palin were lame and yet targeted to hurt not only her campaign, but her personal integrity. Now he's attacking her family. The media takes it as a somewhat joke and just an error in Letterman's judgment, but let's move on. I say NO WAY. Can this turd and let him drive 110mph back on the Henry Hudson to his complex in Connecticut where he can watch re-runs of his appearance as host of the Academy Awards. The man is a disgrace to humanity as are the skinheads. Do not compare Imush with littleman. Imush will kick your butt in a New York minute if you pick on a child, littleman will call for his mommy.

I’m not comparing Imus to Letterman. I’m comparing the reaction of the mainstream media to each incident, and the hypocricy when it came to Sarah Palin and her daughter.

Well said - despite Imus’s failings - he obviously cares a great deal for kids - that’s not an act.
