He’s arrogant, surly, and knows nothing about anything, but at least his voice is incredibly annoying.
yeah, this will make cable one add fox business.........
Daily, long lines of lefty guests interspersed by endless self-promotion ...
What is FBN thinking?
I don't get it either.
What the heck has Imus prattling on about nothing really, got to do with business or looking after my investments?
Imus will not be able to atract his usual stable of Beltway insiders..
Same here. Who else today has the nerve to call Greenspan’s wife “hatchet face” and Hillary Clinton “the devil”? Imus’ morning show should help put a dent in the “Morning Joe” all-liberal-all-the-time panel, the occasional exception being Pat Buchanan.
“yeah, this will make cable one add fox business.........”
You win the “let’s Make A Deal” prize.
FBN has had little success in getting cable providers to pick it up. Ailes and Murdoch don’t give a whit about Imus or his politics, they just need another hammer to chip away at the cable networks that hasn’t signed up the FBN.
It’s only business.
Imus is an acquired taste, and I have it. (Must have gotten it when he was on the air in Detroit, and nothing else was on!!!)
Wish I wasn’t unemployed and hadn’t had to drop cable, would love to watch him.
Bahbah, thanks for the ping!!
imus blech
Put your hands on the radio !
bttt - good to see your posts section 9.
“What is FBN thinking?”
ANYONE who is famous can get a show these days. You don t need to be intelligent, good looking, virtuous, likeable, etc. Just FAMOUS.
FBN can be run in a townhall - that ‘s their audience. 1/100th of CNBC. People hate their showing up O’s video most of the time & Cavuto’s liberal bias spewn all over.
What?
??????????????????????
He’s been off for a couple of weeks now. They’ve been playing ‘Best of Imus’ and subbing with Tom Simone.(?) Anyhow, I’m not a regular listener but I’ve been tuning in because I don’t like the guy who’s been subbing for Bill Bennett this week.
I hate liberals, period, but....
I don’t think I have listened to the Don Imus show more than 2 or 3 times in my life. Other than what I saw of his nappy headed comment, I have never paid any attention to him.
However, I have seen what he and his wife have done for kids dying/suffering from cancer. He’s done this work from his own pocket, from all profits coming from his products, and donations. For that, I salute him.

“Cavuto’s liberal bias spewn all over.”
Perhaps you’re watching Cavuto’s show from an alternative universe, because I sure don’t see him as that. Help me out??
I listen to Imus on the way to work. Since he returned to the air after the racial card was dropped on him, he acknowledges that conservatives are the only ones who stood with him. So, even though he’s brain dead and his show is essentially a nonstop radiothon collecting for his ranch, he does crack down on liberals who abandoned him.
