IMUS SUSPENDED

[Nextrush]

WILLIAMS ANNOUNCING ON NBC, TWO WEEKS SUSPENSION

[onyx]

There’s a thought -— one he might ponder too!

[WillT]

What a joke - the guy apologized 100 times and it’s not good enough. I’m not a big Imus fan but that is hardly a fireable offense. What a bunch of PC mumbo jumbo. Maybe this will open Imus’ eyes finally. But I doubt it.

[Windcatcher]

I’m probably in the minority here, but I’m glad he was suspended. In fact, I’d like to see him fired. The reason is that a Conservative *absolutely* would have been fired, and leftists would hound him wherever he went to make sure he never worked in TV again. Let’s see how the other half likes it.

[HoosierHawk]

With such a knee-jerk reaction as suspension, they’ll smell blood in the water and go for the kill.

[finnman69]

Jigaboo timeoff for Imus.

[onyx]

Oh THAT -— well, you know, it went the way of Jesse’s hymie remarks.

[mcvey]

No . . . they were not any of those things. The tape shows that Imus and company were simply rolling along as they usually do. The comments actually went to how tough the women were--in the same way that I might call someone a bad-assed M*ther-F*CKER in appreciation of something that took cajones.

Please don't look in my bags, mister Admin Mod.

[Riverman94610]

Do you notice the kindergarden mentality of some of these”conservatives”defending Imus?
Well,JESSE does it too.The mean old rappers do it.Chris Rock says things like that too.
So,mommy,don’t send me to my room.Joey next door was bad too.

Absolutely disgraceful.

[Rb ver. 2.0]

I don’t think you’re exposed to the hip hop culture very much are you?

[Sue Perkick]

He’s looked like that for 30 years and he’s still better looking than Olbermann.

[freeangel]

Ooops! I figured he’d pay off Jesse and the whole thing would go away.

[mewzilla]

Good. MSNBC is a joke!

Not to mention gutless. Either fire the guy or tell the people calling for his head to go urinate up a rope. MSNBC's trying to split the difference.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but he is suspended only from MSNBC simulcast, not his radio show. His radio show will gon an as usual.

[hophead]

I see he went on Sharptons radio show. Sharpton said to him, “Kiss it, go ahead and kiss it.”

That nappy headed racist.

[Just sayin]

Might there be a comment from those two in there about a certain person who liked to say “Blue Eyed Devild” ona regular basis? Surely they had this same outrage then?

Maybe they can play videos of Jesse getting arrested in Decatur Illinois when he was screamin racism....(until a video of what actually happened came out anyway)

[WhiteGuy]

STERN RULES

[leadpenny]

It’s just starting to sink in with me. Only a few around here are outraged at this PC BS. I hope Imus tells MSNBC to stuff it and heads over to Comedy Channel or Bravo for a Simulcast.

[Wormwood]

Having said this, the fact that sharpton and Jesse can get money and air time and “prestige” out of this is just nauseating! Talk about race pimps who make money on racism!

True enough.

I believe Imus should have been thrown off the air immediately after his idiotic comment was made.

By waiting for the controversy to brew, Imus's employer only granted poverty pimps like Sharpton the power and attention they desperately crave.

[AIM-54]

What ever happened to knocking limousine liberal punks on their asses when they call your daughters whores?

I'd say "go for it!". But that's not what's happening here.

[pepperhead]

Does this mean that IMUS will make Olbermann’s WORST person in the world list?

LMAO
