So now they’ll have zero viewership.

Good! If they are this stupid they deserve NO VIEWERS, PERIOD!

[Mo1]

This is solely about more face-time for Crazy Al.

I keep wondering why they went after Imus like they did .. they usually give libs a pass

I'm thinking it's more then just face-time for Al

[Peach]

So we’ll hit Al Sharpton with his Twana Brawley debacle.

[mhking]

By rights, we never should have seen Al’s face on tv again after his hymietown comments.

Psst! That was Jesse. (who is equally repugnant)

[TN Conserative]

thanks for the giggle!

[confuzed]

So true. I hope Contessa Brewer and all the other people that Imus attacked personally and in a mean, crude way enjoy their bubbly tonight. . . He is a bully and this was karma!

[SevenofNine]

Boy didn’t take long LOL!

[spectre]

They never even gave him a chance to redeem himself..And they all think they're such good people, the one's who wouldn't forgive Don and help him grow from his mistakes.

Imus has done more for the Black kids than Sharpton and Jackson have..Shame on those two.

Maybe there is some new amendment we haven’t heard of that prevents talk show hosts from being fired.

[Right_in_Virginia]

His employer fired him. How is that a violation of the 1st Amendment?

You raise a valid point.

But, what chills me is: Who's next? Someone who speaks against Muslim terrorists? Won't that upset CAIR?

[Peach]

You’re right.

This is Sharpton’s recist past:

[MeanWestTexan]

Correct.

Al merely falsely incited anti-Jewish riots, which resulting in Jews getting killed and massive property damage.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Yes...thanks, that’s his name ;^D

[leadpenny]

Political correctness violated free speech. Yes, it did it through his employer, but the effect on all of is the same.

[spikeytx86]

This is such B.S., what he said is wrong, but then again he says horrible stuff about everyone and no one seemed to care before. If that windbag Rosie is still on the air, then Imus should not be fired.

[JRochelle]

Love your tag line. I was suspended today for a few hours. I admit I deserved it. It was my first time...

[omega4179]

He would have been fired anyway if he had said it was a joke and moved on.

I think that is what Ann was trying to tell him.

[stinkerpot65]

I don’t like PC, but referring to college kids as “nappy-headed hos” is over the line.

[paltz]

he’ll re-emerge on satellite

[onyx]

He should have just said “hey I’m an a**hole, I do rough comedy, I’m sorry for the stupid racist remark” and nothing more, but he fell for the “apology route” which libs always see as weakness and they always go for more.
