The Wall Street Journal gives all the gory details of the step by step disintegration of the Imus franchise.
Meanwhile, Pat Buchanan assails what he calls the hypocrites and charlatans who orchestrated the take-down.
Tom Delay (who has about zero credibility and really shouldn't be talking in public anymore) says they got Imus, now, let's get Rosie. Now, I can't stand Rosie, let's stipulate to that. If the righties are successful on this one. That said, the Imus take-down might be this year's impeachment, starting a never ending war of political tit for tat. Here we go!
The girls, by the way, have accepted the Imus apology, which came in person in a meeting just after he learned of his firing by CBS. What the statement that they're "working on forgiving him" means, is puzzling, and a little saccharine. I blame the university and their spokespeople for that one, not the girls.
Unbe-freaking-lievable... Update: Condoleezza Rice weighs in. And next stop, hip-hop? The debate begins, Snoop plays the ass, and after demanding the head of Don Imus, Reverend Al will settle for dialogue with hip-hop MCs... Labels: Don Imus, race, racism, talk radio |
