What the hell is everyone else thinking? What's next - folks shocked at
Howard Stern saying "tits?" It's the Don-****in-Imus Show, not "Five
Minutes of All Warm and Fuzzy" on "All Things Considered"...
If a person doesn't wanna hear Don Imus say "controversial" stuff, maybe
listening to Don Imus' show ain't the thing they ought to be doing...
Richard, his comment wasn't "controversial" at all, it was a
despicable cheap shot aimed at a group of college kids. The
man has a public platform with which to speak his mind, along
with that comes a certain responsibility.
Um, then what was the whole series of comments, the Lady Vols being
"cute" and "a nice-looking group of girls?" And before anyone gets all
"racial," the Tennessee and Rutgers team have the same racial makeup.
Google up who said what and I think you'll find that Imus' comment_S_
weren't as "racist" as some might wish it to make it, and if 50-Cent or
Poof Dribbler or your favorite gangsta rapper had said it, Sharpton, et
al, would have never opened their cakeholes.

And no, I didn't hear the original broadcast, but I did a little
research to see who said what.
