Imus being cancelled saddens me greatly! i've listen to him every morning for the 15? years he's been carried locally. he is NO racist. his comment was wrong and he DID not go out of his way or single out the RU basketball team. they were the replay being shown on msnbc at the time.
Imus at the time of the comment was an old white-man, tring to be funny or "street".

what's more sad in this are harold ford and barack obama! here was their chance to step up and make a differnce! instead they left sharpton and jesse jackson RUN Imus off the air.
Imus can't stand sharpton and jackson on a good day! so as-far-as i'm concerned the BAD guys won.

all the good that Imus has done for people of ALL colors and to have this happen is the BIGGEST crime!
the money he's raised for children's cancer that built a hospital in NJ and the Imus Ranch. the new state of the art rehab hospital in san antonio for Vets from the gulf war.
he took the walter reed hospital story and made it national and went after senators and congressmen on the radio on WHY it was happening.
he spoke up for the people of new orleans and the whole gulf coast after the hurricanes on the piss poor response of the government to help it's own people.

cbs radio and msnbc should be ashamed of themselves for allowing sharpton and jackson AND jealous co-workers run Imus out.
sorry for the rant. this happened while we were away and has been driving me nuts!
