Abrams is an asshole.
We still have Fred Imus.
I gotta say, there is certainly not any across the board standard for what you can or can’t say. I don’t like Imus and I don’t feel the least bit sorry for him, and in fact, what he said was typically stupid. But....
susie
Too bad. That cave, in effect, elevates Al Sharpton to the head race hustler. Jesse Jackson will be parking Al’s car now.
Lurch must be devestated. He said Imus was his favorite show.
Maybe if Imus hadn’t exposed Schumer over his lack of Walter Reed visits, everything would be forgiven.
Then again, when does Al Sharpton get the axe for his comments and deeds, past and present?
Personally, I care less about Imus, never listen to him, but this all out effort at silencing people scares the bejeezies out of me.
The sharks were circling in the water. Now they taste blood.
Now Imus knows what Trent Lott went through for far, far less outrageous comments.
Will he have a radio show? Does he have one, now? Or will Sharptongue and the Rev also take that away?
A very boring station is on its way out. I turn it off almost every time I tune in, except I did enjoy Imus because of his irreverant humor. It is sad to see the vanquished white man so throughly humilated before he is sent to a re-education camp and required to pay reparations.
Looking back on when I was a little nappy headed boy.....
So now the words "Nappy headed" are bad words, right?
he’s violated our community,”
What is this “our community crap”?
“MSNBC’s action came after a growing list of sponsors—including American Express Co., Staples Inc., Procter & Gamble Co., and General Motors Corp.—said they were pulling ads from Imus’ show for the indefinite future.”
The market working. These companies pay the bills—his salary, and the rest of the cost of producing his lowlife babble.
They no longer want their reputations associated with him or his foul mouth.
I hope this is the start of a trend away from trash-talk, profanity, etc.
What a load of crap! The PC police will put us all in jail if they had their way. Imus did a stupid thing and his life is ruined. Are we a bunch of zombies? This has got to stop or we will all be afraid that we will offend someone and lose our jobs and lifelihoods. Each one of us could be the next one to go. Imus has been calling Bush and Cheney “war criminals” for months and no one raised an eyebrow. But this puts him on a fast train to nowhere. Pure craziness. When Rosie O’Donnell comes on the “View” and defends Imus it has gone way past the point of no return. When does this end?
I’m surprised that no one has accused Imus of being a right-wing extremist—because if he’s not, he must be from the left wing. Has John Kerry come to the defense of his friend? He was always appearing on his radio show during the 2004 campaign.
And MSNBC is the Pimp for not having the stones to yank him the day he uttered that drivel. MSNBC only canned him after Sharpton and Jackson got a fly in their panties. Who even knew Sharpton HAD a radio show?
I can't believe anybody listens to him thirty five years past his prime.
Scary line of reasoning...
