Sorry, but I stick by my original statement. When Sharpton and Jackson apologize to all the White males that they have insulted, disparaged and caused physical and financial pain (not to mention the emotional pain), then I’ll reconsider.

Or have you forgotten “Hymietown”, Tawana Brawley and Howard Beach? Not to mention the Duke Lacrosse players???

I'm no fan of the race-baiting poverty pimps, especially the "Reverend" Al Sharpton. But the First Amendment simply doesn't apply to CBS Radio deciding to fire Imus. It only applies to CONGRESS. We didn't elect CBS to anything.

Well, if you DON’T think this is start of a chilling assault on free-speech rights, check out mediamatters.org. These guys are emboldened by the Imus affair, and have already started to put Rush, Hannity, Savage and Glenn Beck in their sights for the next wave of “shock jocks” to be removed from the airwaves by innuendo, coersion and any other means necessary.

Read and heed my tagline.
