I heard on the radio yesterday (Medved, I think) that Imus once made a reference the "thieving Jews"; when asked to apologize, he apologized for his comment having been "redundant".

He remained on the air after that. I'm sure he's said offensive things about lots of people, and gotten away with it.

I guess he crossed a real line this time. I don't like what he said, but how is this worse than what he's said before? And one of the girls saying it's changed her life forever, or something like that? Now THAT is sad.

Good riddance.

Yes it is sad. If that ruined her life, she’s an imbecile.

I heard John Salley (a black, former NBA player) on his Fox Sports show saying that had Imus made these remarks about Jews he would have been fired. I'm sure he won't be held to account for that remark, even though it was said in all seriousness and as the truth.
