What if it was your daughter he was calling a "nappy-headed ho"? It's not much of a reach for me. If it was my kid on that team, I'd want to slap the shit* out of him. *I apologize for the language but it was the correct word to use Well, Ollie kind of hit the nail on the head.

Can we allow the "journalism" sponsored by two major networks to degenerate to the point that it is okay to use such comments? It seems to me that Imus was suspended for what he said and fired because the sponsors/advertisers dropped him. Imus’ comments were ill advised and inappropriate.

Big deal, some jerk on a radio show that I don't listen to made fun of some people. I don't know maybe my reaction would be that he doesn't know anything about these people, and like entertainers do everyday, said something stupid. Maybe if I was a fan I wouldn't listen to him anymore. And if not, who freakin cares what Don Imus thinks or says. Would your poor little feelings be hurt Ollie? Grow a pair my friend. Life is not fair, and everyone in the world is not going to like you. Should all of these George Bush impersonators/comedians be fired for their poking fun at the presidents vocabulary and intellect? Should all of these rappers be fired for glorifying violence, prostitution, and drug dealing, and being responsible for coining these phrases? Should all the black comedians be fired who are making racial jokes much worse than this about blacks as well as whites? This man is a victim of the media. And I don't even like him or his show.

An appropriate punishment, IMHO, would be to lock Imus up with the friends and loved ones of those young women for a couple of hours. I say again: how would you like it if it was YOUR daughter that was being called a whore? The man called a bunch of female college students “whores” on national TV.
