CBS Radio also fires Imus Today - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I knew it was coming, as soon as MSNBC said Goodbye, it was only a matter of time before CBS did the same. I wonder if he will still meet with the Rutgers team since he has been fired

Don Imus is an idiot, plain and simple. The guy is waaaaay past his prime.

The sad part about it, is that he won't be punished for what he said.

His true feelings came out. He hates black people. He also stated that they looked like jigaboos from a Spike Lee movie. He wouldn't have said that if they were all white basketball women players. They would have been the blond blue-eyed beauties of the world.

But he complimented the Black players on Tennesse. All he did was compare the looks of those players on Both teams and he basically was saying Rutgers players were UGLY and Tennessee was pretty. He could have said it a different way but that's what he was saying.

I happen to agree with Imus there. Candace Parker from Tennessee is deeeeelicious!

His comments were stupid and idiotic. Unfortunatly, nothing will happen to him, because as others have mentioned above, he's way past his prime and nobody gives a crap about him anymore.

Still, after all the years he's been in the business, he would have learned by now when to keep his mouth shut.

I don't know who's more of an Idiot Linbaugh or this guy

I think it's a dame shame that nothing will happen. No rehab for him? ...He's supposed to be going on Al Sharpton's show to apologize. He can keep that mess to himself.

Then they talked about the wrong movie.

It was School Daze.

If fat-ass Rosie ONutjob gets a pass for all of the stupid and racist $ h i t she says why shouldn't Imus??? You see Sharpton and Jackson raising hell about this but could care less if Rosie makes fun of Oriental people. I guess it's only racism if it's your race.

catlover79 · 04-09-2007, 04:00 PM

I had no idea Imus was even still around!!

You're all right -- he is a moron. So is Rosie O'Donnell. Why won't they just go away and leave us alone???

FYI, Asian-American activists were all up in Rosie's azz for what she said. Hence, the reason why she apologized. There were tons of bloggers upset and a video response occured from a spoken word artist. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJCkH...elated&search=
