I hope the Freepers who put their hatred of Imus above the 1st Amendment, sleep well tonight.

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

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

You raise a valid point.

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

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