Couldn’t stand Kuby either but too bad about Curtis. He’s a good guy.

Kuby...who will miss him. I do like Curtis and hope he gets another slot.

IMUS was brought down by Hillary’s hatchet man, Sharpton.....FOR Hillary’s sake......it will be interesting to see if Imus goes after her still.

Imus is back, our long national nightmare is over.

Does this guy even get ratings??? (I guess he does, but really who listens to his show??)

Imus will return with his longtime newsman, Charles McCord, and other members of his morning team, Citadel said in announcing the move. It did not specifically mention Bernard McGuirk, the producer who instigated Imus on the Rutgers comment and was fired as well.

I knew Charles was a mutation stuck to Imus' arse but I never knew that Imus was Bernards sock puppet. Never too old to learn.

Now I can start the day with some solid laughs again.

Hasn’t he been neutered by the media? My understanding is that there is at least one host on WABC (Levin) who doesn’t much like him.

"Imus will replace the morning team of Curtis Sliwa and Ron Kuby on the Citadel Broadcasting-owned station. The pair had hosted the WABC drive-time show for nearly eight years, and Kuby said he was told Thursday afternoon not to show up for work on Friday.

"I've had a fantastic, great run," Kuby said. "Our show has enjoyed the best audience intelligent, compassionate, decent and kind. The new owners don't want that kind of show."

Hmmmmmm. I wonder why Ron was told not to show up for work on Friday?

Imus is the only person who would make me miss Ron.

Kuby is a pony tailed secular hippie, but I found him amusing for comedy value.

So I am confused.

Imus goes back on the air DECEMBER 3, but a co-host he is replacing was told not to go on the air TOMORROW....a month early?

What the heck?

Not that I would blame Kuby for not wanting to be around until Imus comes in, I can't believe they just fired him like that.

Frankly, most mornings, Kuby was more entertaining than Curtis is. And he actually does have the ability (not that he uses it often -- to give a detailed and balanced explanation of an issue (usually one that's legal in nature and Curtis is more totally clueless than usual).

I've heard Curtis with other co-hosts. These two worked well together. (Anyone remember the wacko woman from Ch 5 news before she moved to Ch. 2. I used to make fun of her name and her voice.)

By the way, I might listen to the top of the hour national news, but other than that, I’ll be listening to Scott & Todd on PLJ or I’ll flip to the oldies on CBS because I seemed to have slipped into their demographics.

Ho-Lee Cow!

Well, I for one will miss the Curtis and Kuby show. I really enjoyed to two of them together — talk about Mutt and Jeff. Their antics made me laugh out loud more than once.

If C&K are lurking out there....good job, guys.

Regards,

Sharpton said Thursday that Citadel needs to meet with advertisers and black groups

I wonder if he is going to be asked to meet with some White groups?

Oh sorry, I forgot that White people cannot have groups.

I wasn’t a big Imus fan but he did call Hillary a “bucktoothed crook,” Jimmy Carter a “pansy,” and Dan Rather a “psychopath.”

When Imus was fired Howie Carr commented on how all Imus’ liberal guests deserted 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.”

I be the contrarian and say I’m glad he’s back and I’ll be listening if I can get WABC to stream.

I can’t help myself - I just like the guy.

Kuby should be thrown from the Throgs Neck Bridge, but Sliwa is being badly mistreated here.

“Dog” Chapman is in deep trouble. He used the -N- word repeatedly in a recorded message left to his son, about a girl his son is seeing. This is going to make everyone forget all about Imus!
