Do you believe CBS did the right thing by firing radio host Don Imus after his harsh comments regarding the Rutgers women´s basketball team? Yes. Even though Imus is a "shock jock," his comments crossed the line of acceptability, and the network was right to take a strong stand against that kind of language. He deserved to be let go.

No. Imus´ comments were crass and insensitive, but the punishment was too severe. If hip-hop and rap artists can use that kind of language in their lyrics, it seems hypocritical to take away Imus´ job on that basis.

63 (77%)

Crass and insensitive. Like what you are called if you speak the truth about sharpton.

Imus may be a piece of crap, but it sure was fun to see his lib buddies run away from him! LOL

No.
Americans should be outraged not by Imus’ remarks but Freedom of Speech being attacked by all people... Mr. ‘Ho’ himself... Sharpton and fellow Poverty Pimp Jackson.
