Well yes, but they were right. Imus was wrong.
.
There is a BIG difference with Limbaugh. If any of his advertisers leave him hanging, his listeners will leave the advertiser hanging. ESPN’s Sunday morning NFL show is still feeling it.
The ‘rats goal is to shut down conservative talk radio before the ‘08 election cycle heats up.
As Coulter pointed out, famous is fair game and we should all celebrate good funny insults about people in the news. Ordinary people shouldn’t be insulted.
You can get away with a lot more on radio than TV.
I think we should not inhibit free speech in America. Let the marketplace decide.
The real race-baiters in this story are Sharpton, Jackson, and the organization of black journalists.
The overwhelming hypocrisy of MSNBC, David Gregory, Anna Marie Cox, et al is breathtaking.
Yup. This Imus character just picked on a bunch of college kids. That was pretty shoddy behavior. Had they been public figures, who would care?
Imus not a crackpot?
Watching Imus was like talking to an ignorant grouch with a bad hangover.
This is going to get dirty.
Obama The 'Magic Negro'-Senator Lends Himself to America's Idealized, Less Than Real Black Man
Bring it! Seriously, I dare ya!
“Once someone is identified as beyond the pale, which is how Coulter and Limbaugh are identified, nobody ever takes anything they say all that seriously,” Levinson said.
30 Million+ people may disagree
“Watching Imus was like talking to an ignorant grouch with a bad hangover.”
LMAO!
Remember the NAG boycott of Florida orange juice? A few women would demonstrate in front of a grocery and Limbaugh fans would go into the same store and buy out the entire stock of oj.
It would be easy for Imus to salvage his career. All he needs to do is call Condoleezza Rice a nappy-headed ho. That would be just fine.
Yawn.
It’s not like we would do it to Air America... if it were a viable station that is.
Shall I pull up the lib files? I can even go one better and pull up their representatives files? They don’t want to go there.
Fairness Doctrine redux.
Democrats, the party of free speech.
Condi has been called worse by Harry Belefonte.
My biggest problem is the FCC getting in on this threatening a broadcast license.
That is government infringing on free speech.
The quickest way for me to go buy a product is hear there’s a boycott of it.
