Harvard Professor Alan Dershowitz told BreitbartTV Editor Larry O'Connor on the Governor Paterson Show on WOR that the Media Matters organization is full of "radical Stalinists" and says the White House and Democratic Party need to clearly separate themselves from the organization. *snip* Speaking at University of Pennsylvania last week, well-known Israel supporter and Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz reportedly warned the press about MMFA's operations. "I have, and let me tell you, Max Blumenthal (((SON OF CLINTONISTA VIPER, SYDNEY BLUMENTHAL))) and Media Matters will be singlehandedly responsible for (Obama) losing this election," he is reported saying. The Democrats "cannot win...

Is Don Imus on vacation, or has he been permanently replaced by "Special Report" on Fox Business?? They are not even showing "best of" episodes. I know Don's brother just passed, and I wonder if Don is taking time off to deal with that or if he has finally hung up his hat on Fox Business...?? No mention of anything wrong or different on their website....

EXCERPT: Fred Imus, younger brother of WABC morning host Don Imus and a long-time songwriter and radio host himself, was found dead Saturday at his home in Tucson, Ariz. He was 69.

As NewsBusters previously reported, Chris Matthews on Tuesday blamed conservative talk radio hosts Mark Levin and Michael Savage for creating the climate of hate that led to Saturday's shootings in Tucson, Arizona. On Wednesday, FBN's Don Imus and his sidekick Bernard McGuirk went after the "angry," "vile," "psycho," "spittle-spewing" MSNBCer (video follows with transcript and commentary): As NewsBusters previously reported, Chris Matthews on Tuesday blamed conservative talk radio hosts Mark Levin and Michael Savage

Here is video from the Don Imus show yesterday where he had actors on portraying Charlie Rangel and Bill Clinton. “Bill Clinton” reacts to Charlie Rangel being censured by the U.S. House of Representatives, and offers some advice to him on how he should proceed from here!

Here is video of Don Imus talking with Democrat Sen. John Kerry where Imus asked Kerry if he would have been a better President than Barack Obama (4:58 mark of the video): Imus: “You would have been a better president than President Obama turned out, wouldn’t you?” Kerry: “Uh, no. What are you asking me to do? Make a stupid comment?” Prior to this exchange, Kerry tried to defend the Obama record on the economy, once again blaming former President George W. Bush for everything. Imus challenged Kerry, “You guys are going to blame Bush forever.”

Here is video/audio of GOP Rep. Ron Paul talking to Don Imus this morning where he said he thinks the criticism of President Obama over the Gulf Oil Spill has been over-the-top. Paul said there are lots of other things to criticize Obama for, but that it is not reasonable to expect that a President will know how to “fix oil leaks.” What Paul did not say is that it is Obama himself who has claimed he’s on top of this problem and that the Government will see to it that it gets fixed and those responsible are held accountable.

Jason Mattera, author of "Obama Zombies" and newly appointed editor of Human Events, said "members in the media treat leftist politicians as though they are at a Jonas Brothers concert." He also had rather choice words for young Obama supporters stuck in a "brainless slumber" on Fox Business Channel's April 2 broadcast of "Imus in the Morning." "Somebody about your age - mouthpiece of Franken - is trying to dissuade you from continuing that," host Don Imus noted upon viewing his guest's recent confrontation with Sen. Al Franken. "Yea, he had his hands all over me like Eric Massa," Mattera...

Don Imus, for one, is not surprised by Tom Hanks' recent comments calling WWII and the War on Terrorism racist crusades undertaken by the United States. First brought to his attention by "Imus in the Morning" producer Bernard McGuirk on the show, the remarks were news to the host - just not shocking news. "Oh darn, what a surprise. We have another panty-wearing liberal dickweed from Hollywood - of course!" Imus told McGuirk. McGuirk dubbed Hanks "Tehran Tom" for remarks the actor made March 5 on-set of MSNBC to promote "The Pacific," the HBO mini-series he helped produce.

At last there appears to be a president worse than Jimmy Carter - at least according to conservative talk show host Mark Levin. That was the question host Don Imus asked Levin on the Fox Business Network's "Imus in the Morning." "So the President Obama, worse than Jimmy Carter?"

At last there appears to be a president worse than Jimmy Carter – at least according to conservative talk show host Mark Levin. That was the question host Don Imus asked Levin Feb. 18 on the Fox Business Network’s “Imus in the Morning.” “So the President Obama, worse than Jimmy Carter?” “Worse than Jimmy Carter? I mean they’re not mutually exclusive, they’re both disasters,” Levin replied, citing many of the parallels of the two administrations. But on the home front, Levin said Obama was beyond comparison: “I think on domestic policy, nobody comes close to Barack Obama. I think he’s...

Here is video of Don Imus today talking with Frank Rich of the New York Times, where Imus called Democrat Harold Ford Jr. a "gutless weasel." Imus said Ford had once been a friend of his program, but after Imus "got in some trouble," Imus indicated he feels Ford "abandoned" him. Ford's name came up because he is considering a run for the U.S. Senate in New York, and Frank Rich had asked if Ford had even been to all the burroughs of New York. . . . (VIDEO)

Regarding last Sunday morning when Brit Hume advised Tiger Woods to convert to Christianity.

According to Don Imus, it's the late-1970s all over again, and not in a good way. Imus appeared on the Fox News Channel's Nov. 24 "Hannity" program and had some disparaging words for the current administration's economic policy. He told viewers that Obama's associations with Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers weren't the problem (h/t Erick Erickson at RedState.com). "You had me convinced - yes, he was. But you had me convinced that Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers and some of these people are all going to be in the Cabinet. We'd be better off if they were," Imus said. ...more...

Here is video of Neil Cavuto saying GOP Gubernatorial Candidate Chris Christie's exchange with Don Imus yesterday will be a "deal-changer" in his New Jersey race against Democrat Jon Corzine. Christie was on with Imus yesterday and joked about his weight, which has been attacked by Corzine's campaign. Christie made fun of his own weight, but also said Corzine should "Man up" about it. "If you say I’m fat, I’m fat. Let’s go. Let’s talk about it.” Below is the full interview Christie did with Don Imus . . . (VIDEOS)

Ever since long-time radio talker Don Imus inked a deal with the Fox Business Network to simulcast his morning radio program, he said he has been getting pushback from several acquaintances. And as he explained and showed on his Oct. 28 program, he's not particularly pleased with the reaction about his deal with Fox News. "I get this email and the e-mail says, ‘Sorry to see you've sold out to Fox Business, or whatever. But I am not surprised you sold out to Fox Business, disappointed.' Could you explain to me exactly what does that mean? When you walk in...

Talk about a strong conservative......WOW Mrs. Imus said something many of us have wanted to say for months....that CNN and PMSNBC were prostituting themselves and kissing Obama's ass.... Go Deirdre......we agree.....

Joe Scarborough is under intense pressure to perform as he goes head-to-head with old foe Don Imus. MSNBC chiefs have been nervously watching the ratings since Imus' show on the Fox Business Network started airing at the same time as Scarborough's "Morning Joe" earlier this month. Scarborough was hit with a further blow this week when his radio show was dropped by DC radio station WMAL. A source told Page Six: "Those higher up at MSNBC are unnerved by Imus' move to Fox Business Network and fear his show could push Scarborough down. They're putting a lot of pressure on...

Here is video of Independent Sen. Joe Liberman today telling Don Imus that he does not support the Baucus Health Care Bill in the midst of an economy like this. So it does not appear Lieberman is a vote the Democrats can count on to get to the 60 votes needed for cloture in the Senate. Lieberman believes the Baucus bill will raise the cost of insurance for most of the people in the country. Of course, the final bill voted on in the Senate will change as it is shaped by Democrats before they bring something forward. . ....

Well here’s your takeaway from Don Imus‘ first day on Fox Business Network – a lengthy interview with his new colleague in the Fox family, Glenn Beck. (Here’s more on the debut.) The seven minute interview that took place in studio during the 7amET hour of Imus’ FBN show never got serious, but the jovial atmosphere did allow Imus to put Beck on the hot seat. Specifically, about whether Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh hate him. The beginning of the interview was largely based around Imus and Beck reflecting at their time as alcoholics, and how they turned their lives...

Fox Business News debuts Imus in the Morning today at 6AM EDT.

Don Imus on Fox: 'You've Got Nuts In This Building' October 4, 2009 Radio provocateur Don Imus, whose daily talk show begins simulcasting on Fox Business Network on Monday, said the cable channel “is a much nicer place” than the other networks that have run his program. That said, “you’ve got nuts in this building, and I’m not one of them,” Imus told Neil Cavuto on Friday. “I love Glenn [Beck], but I’ll tell you this, it doesn’t end well.” The debut of “Imus in the Morning” on Fox Business Network comes 2 1/2 years after the shock jock was...

Radio's Don Imus on Friday attacked a litany of present and former CBS personalities including Katie Couric, David Letterman, and Dan Rather. In an interview with Fox News's Neil Cavuto, Imus called CBS "Evening News" anchor Couric "a little rodent," the "Late Show's" Letterman an "angry, mean-spirited jerk," and former "Evening News" anchor Rather "crazy." The outspoken shock jock also said the thought of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin becoming the Republican nominee for president is "horrifying" because "she's a dope." Imus also had some very interesting things to say about his own controversy with CBS surrounding the Rutgers women's...

Don Imus who now has a morning tv show brings his insight to both talkradio and tv. Don Imus is not known for holding back. He generally calls it like he sees it when it comes to people of power and position in particular. Cavuto gets him going … but it’s all Don Imus.

Here is video of Neil Cavuto interviewing Don Imus on the eve of his beginning a new show with the Fox Business Channel. Imus opens his new show on Monday, October 5. Imus commented on Glenn Beck. He says he loves Glenn Beck, but joked "it doesn't end well." On David Letterman, Imus said Letterman is a "mean-spirited jerk," "a punk" who should not have treated what he did in such a "frivolous" manner. Imus said he does not think President Obama "knows what he is doing," but he does not dislike him. Imus said Obama reminds him of Jimmy...

On WABC radio this morning, Mark Levin and Don Imus talked about White House efforts to distract, with race-baiting, the nation from talking about the real issues. When Imus brought up Glenn Beck, Mark reiterated his objections to people comparing Beck with Rush Limbaugh. (Maybe people ought to really listen to what Mark said about Beck before commenting.) It was a great talk-radio, informative and very funny. (Audio after the jump.)

Radio's Don Imus appeared on a special Labor Day edition of "Hannity" Monday evening, and really let President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden have it. In a no holds barred discussion on Fox News, Imus said he thought Obama "was a hypocrite and a phony," and that Biden, in the 100 times he's interviewed him, has said "far worse things" than he's ever said on radio. In Imus's view, Biden's "a moron" (video embedded below the fold with partial transcript, h/t Story Balloon): DON IMUS, RADIO HOST: Even my own personal experience with [Barack Obama], and I thought...

Rumors have been swirling about Fox courting cancer-stricken, old racist coot Don Imus to be part of their morning lineup, and now it seems they're close to reaching a deal. The question is: What the hell took them so long? Brian Stelter reports in today's New York Times that Fox Business is hoping to simulcast Imus' utterly unlistenable radio show in the same way MSNBC did before they fired him after the "nappy-headed hoes" incident involving the Rutgers women's basketball team a couple of years ago. Stelter says that the deal is in "advanced negotiations" and that Fox hopes Imus'...

The notions that as young African-American women — who I hope will be athletes — that that somehow makes them less beautiful or less important. It was a degrading comment. It’s one that I’m not interested...

""I understand MSNBC has suspended Mr. Imus," Obama told ABC News, "but I would also say that there's nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude."

Radio shock jock Don Imus insisted he was joking when he threatened to shoot WTKK host Jay Severin during yesterday’s St. Patrick’s Day broadcast in Boston - but Severin’s agent doesn’t buy it and called the I-Man’s explanation “pathetic.” The early morning showdown at the Wilbur Theatre - where the 68-year-old Imus told Severin to get off the stage or he’d shoot him - sparked a war of words yesterday between the two camps. “I heard that Imus’ spokesman tried to characterize this as an ‘obvious joke’ on Imus’ part. That’s pathetic,” said Severin’s agent and attorney, George Tobia. “Leaving...

Radio shock jock Don Imus threatened to shoot WTKK host Jay Severin during this morning’s St. Patrick’s Day broadcast in Boston. The confrontation - which both Imus and Severin confirm - occurred shortly after 6 a.m. when Severin went up on the Wilbur Theatre stage during a commercial break to say hello to friends who are members of the “Imus in the Morning” cast. The exchange came a day after Imus’ dramatic revelation that he has prostate cancer.

NEW YORK (WABC) -- Don Imus announced on his radio show this morning that he has stage II prostate cancer. The 68-year-old Imus made the surprise announcement on his radio show at around 7:30 a.m.

Controversial radio show host Don Imus announced Monday morning that he has Stage II prostate cancer. Imus, 68, made the announcement on his show Monday on WABC 770. "I have great confidence in my doctors," Imus, 68, said on air shortly before 9 a.m. "I'll be fine. If I'm not fine, then I won't be fine. And it's not a big deal." He then told listeners: "The prognosis couldn't be better."

When Jonas Salk invented polio vaccine, he was a hero — and I’m a terrorist?” he jokes, referring to a placard denouncing him at a recent demonstration by antivaccine activists outside the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. In recent years, the debate over vaccines and autism, which began in fear and confusion, has hardened into anger. As Dr. Offit’s book details, numerous studies of thimerosal, measles virus and other alleged autism triggers in vaccines have been conducted, and hundreds of children with diagnoses of autism have undergone what he considers sham treatments and been “cured.” Both sides...

On Colin Powell and other Republicans doubting Palin: Asks "What's their problem?" Calls her the "most popular governor in America," lists her accomplishments in Alaska. Says Bill Clinton was "pretty much derided" when he came out of a small state to run for president. "I'm amazed." Says just because she hasn't been to a "Georgetown cocktail party" doesn't mean she's not ready for the job. "I think she's the most qualified of anyone recently who has run for vice president to tell you the truth... I'm frankly entertained at the elitist attidue toward a person who is a proven leader."...

Hugh Hewitt, conservative talk show host on the Salem Radio Network, doesn’t worry too much about the Fairness Doctrine making any sort of comeback. According to him, it simply couldn’t pass Constitutional muster. Yet, there are many conservatives who aren’t quite as assured as Hewitt – especially with the very real possibility of a filibuster-proof Democratic Congress tag-teaming with a White House occupied by the Obama-rama leftocracy. As Brian Anderson wrote in Monday’s New York Post: Yes, the Obama campaign said some months back that the candidate doesn't seek to re-impose this regulation … But most Democrats - including party...

"..Once you begin apologizing, you can never stop, and it will never be enough for some. So he has allowed himself to be put under the thumb of the preacher-pimps and race cops who make a living off the misery and discontent of the black bourgeoisie who believe it is their responsibility to decide when and how much black people should be offended by the white man's ignorance..."

NEW YORK -- Just months after returning to the airwaves with a pledge to mend the wounds caused by his racist and sexist comment about a women's basketball team, Don Imus is again drawing fire for injecting race into his radio show. During an on-air conversation Monday about the arrests of suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam Jones, Imus asked, "What color is he?" Told by sports announcer Warner Wolf that Jones, who used to be nicknamed Pacman, is "African-American," Imus responded: "There you go. Now we know."

Again? Race Comment 'Disturbs' Sharpton By STEVE FINK, WCBSTV.COM NEW YORK (CBS) ― It appears "shock jock" Don Imus may not have learned his lesson following last year's "nappy-headed ho" debacle. In an audio file of the Monday, June 23, edition of his talk radio program, "Imus In The Morning," heard in New York on WABC-AM, Imus made what some consider a questionable comment during a discussion about oft-troubled NFL player Adam "Pacman" Jones, who wants to drop his nickname. When Imus' co-host Turner Wolf informed Imus that the suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback had been arrested a slew of times...

ESPN.com columnist Jemele Hill was suspended yesterday after sparking outrage by comparing rooting for the Boston Celtics [team stats] to Adolf Hitler and nuclear war. “Jemele has been relieved of her writing and on-air responsibilities for a period of time to reflect on the impact of her words,” ESPN spokesman Paul Melvin said in an e-mailed statement yesterday. Yesterday, Hill amplified on her earlier apology for writing, “Rooting for the Celtics is like saying Hitler was a victim. It’s like hoping Gorbachev would get to the blinking red button before Reagan.”
