They lost to Tennessee, you know.
Imus did his share by apologising every 3 minutes for almost a week and going to Al Sharpton.
*did his share of damage (I should make clear)
What? It is almost exclusively used by the black community.
I think he was on Satellite Radio...a different genre entirely. However, the claim about falling sponsors doesn't sell because where one sponsor leaves another is there to take his place..maybe at a lower figure but he will be there nonetheless.
“The only thing worse than what the rappers say would be government regulation of their right to say it. The difference with Imus is that hes on the public airwaves. Its not a question of whether he can say all the outrageous things he says—its where he says them. The marketplace has spoken.”
Does she think rap music shouldn’t be allowd on the “public airwaves”?
That’s the real reason he got fired. People were just tired of hearing him apologize. Toward the end, he took to stopping random black people on the street and apologizing. He made four guys late for work. He’d break into homes and apologize to families sitting down to dinner. And, in one odd instance (restraining orders were issued) he took the court during an NBA game and began apologizing to the players.
I’m sorry .. but I just don’t buy it.
I heard a caller to Rush’s program the other day and she said that NOBODY CAN STEAL MY JOY - NOBODY! I don’t care what they say. I own my joy and I don’t allow anybody to steal it from me by their careless words.
Oh .. and she was a black woman.
It was priceless!
Oh, I didn’t know about the going to basketball games part.
Ha ,ha, anybody who makes fun of Eleanor Clift can’t be all bad !!!
I heard that on Rush. I especially liked his “Jesse Jackson And Al Sharpton Are Right” second hour opening

There was a deal in the works to give him his job back if he stopped apologizing. But he couldn’t stop. He was last seen somewhere outside albany flagging down cars on the NY Thruway and apologizing.
I used to watch the McLaughlin Group just to listen to Clift defend and glorify everything and anything the Clinton administration did, from Monica, Travelgate, the Rose Law Firm and FBI files. She never found even the slightest wrongdoing and steadfastly refused to criticize Clinton, all done with the vocabulary of a cab driver and the cerebral authority of a mollusk. It was like gawking at a car wreck; trying to imagine how she held a job at a national publication to do anything but mop the floors. She is truly in a class of her own.
Yeah? And rappers aren't? LOL! What a mooncalf.
Eleonors greatest desire in life is to become Bill Clinton’s Ho
Don Aimless is just a very bad loose cannon, and a danger to all around him. His brand of “humor” should not be confused with light banter and witticisms, as it has never enlightened anybody, nor has it ever been more than momentarily funny. He is essentially a very mean person, and hiding behind intoxication or misuse of drugs does not excuse his behavior in the least.
And, she wanted to be asked back by Imus.
