Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted April 9, 2007 Members Share Posted April 9, 2007 Don Imus needs to shut the hell up. I saw him this morning and he wants everyone to feel sorry for him. He is saying he is sorry and he isn't bad. He knew what the hell he was saying and shouldnt expect forgiveness. If I do some [!@#$%^&*] that is straight up wrong, I do not expect to be forgiven because I am wrong. People dont just say things like that at the spur of the moment, and I doubt this is his first time saying those things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Shawn Posted April 9, 2007 Members Share Posted April 9, 2007 While I agree that his actions are deplorable and should have severe consequences, I think its hypocritical for people to demand he be fired when people like the classless Howard Stern can still insult/offend people on a daily basis.

Members Q Steph Posted April 9, 2007 Members Share Posted April 9, 2007 NEW YORK - Even as he scheduled an on-air meeting with radio host Don Imus, the Rev. Al Sharpton said he still wants Imus fired for his racially charged comments about the Rutgers University women's basketball team. ADVERTISEMENT Sharpton said Sunday he intends to complain to the Federal Communications Commission about the matter. "Somewhere we must draw the line in what is tolerable in mainstream media," he said. "We cannot keep going through offending us and then apologizing and then acting like it never happened. Somewhere we've got to stop this." Sharpton and MSNBC announced that Imus would appear Monday on Sharpton's nationally syndicated program. Meanwhile, the Rev. Jesse Jackson planned a protest in Chicago, and an NAACP official called for Imus' resignation or firing. The broadcaster said Wednesday during his nationally syndicated program that members of the mostly black Rutgers team were "nappy-headed hos." The team, which includes eight black women, had lost the day before in the NCAA women's championship game. Imus was speaking with producer Bernard McGuirk about the game when the exchange began on "Imus in the Morning," which is broadcast to millions of people on more than 70 stations and the MSNBC television network. "That's some rough girls from Rutgers," Imus said. "Man, they got tattoos ... ." "Some hardcore hos," McGuirk said. "That's some nappy-headed hos there, I'm going to tell you that," Imus said. Imus has since apologized, but his mea culpa has not quieted the uproar. Jackson said his RainbowPUSH Coalition planned to protest Monday in Chicago outside the offices of NBC, which owns MSNBC. He said Sunday that protests were being planned across the country. "If he has a right to use that platform to insult and degrade, then we have a moral obligation to picket NBC and to protest," Jackson said. "If he can violate us in that platform in the name of free speech, we'll be picketing NBC in the name of free speech." James E. Harris, president of the New Jersey chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, demanded Sunday that Imus "resign or be terminated immediately." Allison Gollust, a spokeswoman for MSNBC, said the network considers Imus' comments "deplorable" and is reviewing the matter. Karen Mateo, a spokeswoman for CBS Radio — Imus' employer and the owner of his New York radio home, WFAN-AM — said the company was "disappointed" in Imus' actions and characterized his comments as "completely inappropriate." Imus, who has not been publicly disciplined, apologized on the air Friday. "It was completely inappropriate, and we can understand why people were offended. Our characterization was thoughtless and stupid, and we are sorry," Imus said, according to a transcript on MSNBC's Web site. ___ On the Net: http://www.sharptontalk.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JER Soaps Fan Posted April 10, 2007 Members Share Posted April 10, 2007 Don't get me wrong, I've never watched his show -- more than the five seconds of a slow channel scan; honestly: WHAT is this guy's appeal? -- but I would have never expected this kind of guy to say such things. Whenever I've breezed past him on the channel scan, I always got the feeling he was just heartland, squeaky clean but rough-around-the-edges, youknow? Again, VERY shocked!

Members EricaKane70 Posted April 10, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2007 Okay, after hearing about this idiot today MSNBC needs to fire him, he has said comments like this before and even vowed on air beforehand that he would never say a racist comment again, he needs to go. It's clear that he can't shut his damn racist mouth, his apology is very laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
