I agree with you that this is a weird article. Mr. Tyrell’s time has come and gone, and he has become very bitter since his heyday back in the last century.
At least Imus served in the military, what was Mr. Tyrell doing in the 1960s beyond using his student deferments to avoid the draft.
Imus must have done something’s right.
He was a very good interviewer.
He was amused when his staff insulted him - if they were funny
His sophomoric humor was sophomoric. Hence the name. I find tenth grade boys humor to be quite funny, honest, insulting, irreverent, politically incorrect, curious and observant
Not everyone enjoys it.
