We now travel down the slippery slope of losing freedom of speech & thought while the race pimps create new victims.

Exactly right. For Sharpton and Jackson and the NOW gang, this was spring training. Imus was just a warmup. Now they'll go after actual conservatives with their letter-writing and boycott campaigns.

Imus wasn't a conservative, but he wasn't a liberal, either. He was a flip-flopping entertainer guided by ratings and pandering principles more than ideology.

All his new so-called friends ran away and hid on him. Think about that unctuous NBC rumpswab David Gregory. Wednesday night, he went on MSNBC looking like his dog just got run over. But by yesterday morning, Gregory was back on top of his game. He apologized to Jesse Jackson for ever having gone on the Imus show.

Heh. I don't even want to know what a rumpswab is, but that's funny.

Can you say, Leftist Media Phony?

I thought you could.

Could you please add me to your Howie Carr ping list?
He has become one of my favorite columnists. Top three, easy.

Thanks.

I decided he was an idiot and changed morning drivetime channels.

So did a lot of other people. His ratings have been declining steadily. This probably played a role in his termination.

That was the first thing I noticed when I watched Hardball.

His ratings have been declining steadily.

So did the number of radio stations that carried him. I remember back when MSNBC first came to air in 1996, they put Imus In The Morning on their lineup a month or so later, and in a short amount of time, Imus had close to 200 radio stations.

OK you’re added! Be aware the ping list is for columns and also his daily radio show.

The lesson learned here is that you can NEVER, EVER, count on a Washington Liberal when times get tough.

In the end, the only thing they are interested in is thier own skin, and “friends” are just another tool for the path to power, or to a “Journalist”, an inside source to be used until burned...

All the Party Circuit “friends” he had just two short weeks ago, will do anything not to be associated with him now.

Such is the way of The New McCarthyism, and the PC Thought Police...

That is why he was expendable. If his ratings were better, he would still be on the air. This way, CBS and MSNBC get look good and introduce new talent at the same time.

Ain’t it great. The same people who were laughin’ and gigglin’ with him two weeks ago are nowhere to be seen.

Tom? (Friedman)
Frank? (Rich)
Jonathan? (Alter)
Doris? (K Goodwin)
Chris? (Matthews)
Tim? (Russert)
David? (Gregory) Forget it, David already bailed, with his hands on his a** trying to stuff it back in. What an ever-lovin’ weenie!

I heard Cavuto say he had 61 as of the end of his show Thursday, which includes the handful of the CBS O&O stations that carried him.

Incidently, I listened to the first half hour of his Thursday morning show, and the first thing I heard was Imus lighting into MSNBC and CBS about "abject hypocrisy", which ironically was a soundbyte FOX News used after the hammer fell on Imus.

Liberals are just cowards on every front. They can’t even bring themselves to admit Imus is a flaming liberal. They only have the courage to stand with you when you are winning, but cut and run at the first sign of trouble. It doesn’t matter if it’s Imus or the US Military. They are all obviously just narcissist!

That's what really sucks. He got rolled by two of the best examples of racism in America.
