Everyone is entitled to make value judgements about these things, and in the big picture, they matter little. My own value judgement is that there is no value to what exits Imus' mouth. But to each his own.

[Final Authority]

You are correct in how you see it for yourself. I look at the larger picture as I suspect I have witnessed more and been exposed to a wider spectrum of social, academic, and intellectual situations than most and I see Imus as a guy who has made much of his abilities and excels at some of those. One of his greatest talents is recognizing talent around himself and maintaining it for the purposes of his program. He does report that every regular on-air personality on his show are millionaires. He knows how to keep them.
