...if anything, he’s an equal opportunity offender.

I agree with you there. That's why I have a bigger problem with MSNBC and CBS (GE and Viacom) for giving the guy a mike.

And what's with the delay on the presser on MSNBC? They didn't dump Imus when he made that remark (telling, wasn't that), but they're prepared to dump out of the presser?

Players say they haven’t ‘come to a decision’ about calling a boycott of Imus stations

Imus started the Bush bashing to remind leberal why they love him. To take the heat off of his racist comments.

He raises millions of dollars for sick children, black and white.

And Jesse will let him know what the “cost” of his forgiveness is, you know that.

Interesting how Rutgers U is having a press conference BEFORE the group meeting with Imus and not afterwords...

I don’t know about this raising millios of dollars...he has a tax deductible house he enjoys for 10 months of the year. It was a great financial move. But then again, how can you prove you’re not an opportunist?

Then they should be called-out for their double-standard.

He raises millions of dollars for sick children all across the country.

That’s why his suspension doesn’t start till Monday; he has an on air fund raiser for a hospital in NJ the rest of this week.

What in the hell is wrong with having a coach inspire young women be the best they can be? As a women this is exactly the kind of coach I would want for my daughter. Like the Bush haters who are incapable of sane thinking I believe the Jackson Sharpton detesters can’t see the injustice of Imus’s attack on these very young women.

How come the Tennessee women aren’t having a press conferences since Imus called them the ‘White wanna-bees’ to the Rutgers ‘Jiggaboos’

Treuly this is heavy stuff and Imus should have his ass whipped.

Heavy stuff??? It's a joke... literally a joke - a tasteless, derogatory joke - but the same kind of joke Imus has been doing for 30 years. Why everybody is freaking out now is beyond me.
