Imus is such an old moron!! im glad this happen to him. I only listened to him one time and i wanted to throw my fucking radio out the window!!! He looks like Death!! he's a real dick licker, and i hope he dies a lonely sad man.
Ever notice how really ugly men wear their hair long???
If you don't like what you hear or see there are neat features on TVs and radios such as channel changer and the on / off button. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson need to be taken down for the 'Duke' boys case as they were all over that until the s''t hit the fan. They are as Racist and ignorant as they come. Tell them to turn on some of these rap stations, MTV and HBO 'Def Comedy Jam'. But that's right reverse racism does not exist.
Here's one of the stupid comments of Al Sharpton:
BILL O'REILLY, HOST: Two Duke lacrosse players have been arrested and charged with rape among other violent crimes. They are free on $400,000 bail. As you may know, the students attended a party where a stripper hired by the lacrosse team said she was raped. With us now civil rights activist Reverend Al Sharpton. Is this a racial issue?
REV. AL SHARPTON, CIVIL RIGHTS ACTIVIST: I think that there are certainly a lot of racial factors. Whether it is directly in the case, we'll see, because some reports said that there was racial language used. But I think that when you look at the racial atmosphere, when you look at the fact that there again were the allegations of racial statements, when you look at a lot of people feeling that they have been treated differently, where this girl has basically had a character charged in the media, there is a lot of racism that's in the air. Having said that, I commend a lot of the blacks and whites who stood vigil and to come together in that community to stand up for this girl. So I think in the midst of this, there is some good.

The 'Duke' boys were guilty before their case was presented according to Al Sharpton.
Does this sound familiar?
1987: Sharpton spreads the incendiary Tawana Brawley hoax, insisting heatedly that a 15-year-old black girl was abducted, raped, and smeared with feces by a group of white men. He singles out Steve Pagones, a young prosecutor. Pagones is wholly innocent -- the crime never occurred -- but Sharpton taunts him: 'If we're lying, sue us, so we can . . . prove you did it.' Pagones does sue, and eventually wins a $345,000 verdict for defamation. To this day, Sharpton refuses to recant his unspeakable slander or to apologize for his role in the odious affair.
I don't listen to Don Imus so I'm neither a fan nor a non-fan. He's just one more shock jock in a long succession of others since Joe Pyne's acerbic wit and humor hit the airwaves in the late 1940s. But make no mistake. Imus' fans didn't just go into a corner with their tails between their legs. They probably look at this incident as just a bump in Imus' road and otherwise like Imus who, after all, is a member of the National Broadcasters Hall of Fame and considered by Time Magazine as one of the most influential men in broadcasting.
The really odd thing is the disdain Howard Stern shows for him since, in my opinion, they are cut from the same cloth. Howard Stern had to flee to Sirius satellite radio due to his own questionable on-air demeanor. But he'd better look over his shoulder ... because I suspect that Imus will follow his lead. And as Stern's fans followed him to Sirius, so would Imus' fans.
I would not be surprised if Sirius and/or XM satellite moguls aren't already considering offers to Imus ... and not surprised if Imus didn't already know about them. I predict that Imus will be back on the airwaves before the end of summer. They may just be the non-commercial airwaves of satellite radio ... where there are no sponsors to pull their ads.
All of this brouhaha over a stupid comment. He said 'nappy headed hos'. Did he say 'filthy niggers?'
Blacks need to lighten up and they the cornbread out of their ears. This whole thing is stupid.
Is that actually Howard in that picture? Jesus, that plastic surgery didn't seem to work.
With the C-grade model on Howard's arm, is his transformation into Imus complete?
Imus did it on purpose wanted an out.You cant buy this kind of publicity. now all his fans will feel he got unfaily canned & tune in to his web cast.
THEY SHOULD JUST NUKE THE MIDDLE EAST,AND BUILD A BIG CAGE THERE SO THEY CAN THROW AL SHARPTON,JESSE JACKSON,AND ALL THE NAPPY HEADED HOES INTO IT.PLEASE IM TIRED OF YOU PEOPLE.THATS RIGHT I SAID IT YOU PEOPLE!
I remember when Stern was just as big of an a-hole when he worked at WWDC in Washington,D.C. when the Air Florida crash happened and that insensitive moron Stern ,mimicked the miget from Fantasy Island to forget those little facts when he picks on others in the radio industry.
