The Imus effect: the stupefying magic of appearing to do something Big
CBS Radio will soon have no talent on its network that have any edge to them at all. The network is all radio hosts who insist on doing racial jokes. Good thing Jackie Mason isn't still around. Clearly, we've entered a new era, which is probably a good thing, although you've got to know that blue language isn't going away, it will just go to satellite radio, underground radio, and the comedy clubs.

Meanwhile, Russell Simmons calls a meeting with record execs, to propose that they do ... what radio already ... does... ban three little words from the clean versions of hip-hop songs.

Wow. Now that's exactly on the scale of the jihad to get Don Imus canned...

By the way, a word to the wise: don't ever call anybody a ho, ever ... again... if you want to remain employed.

Meanwhile, will someone please fire Rosie O'Donnell ... from public life?
