Re: CBS fires Imus

the beautiful thing about this thread is that all of you are adamantly practicing your first amendment right over an issue that isn't about free speech at all.

the guy got fired because his own predjudicial fears bubbled to the surface. He engaged his mouth before he engaged his brain. Not the first time it has happened and it won't be the last.

Re: CBS fires Imus

Ok kids, now we are getting into a whole other issue. Should high schools hold a separate black/white prom? Absolutely not

Re: CBS fires Imus

I agree with many of the above comments, we have to many standards that apply when talking about blacks or whatever and then they dont apply when talking abo9ut whites etc. Did Imus make a stupid remark, yes, shoudl he be fired, no I have made my fair share of stupid comments, shit happens.

I assume that I am but one of many others who fear it becoming a free speech issue...stranger things have happened. I fear it becoming an issue of censorship, which I oppose because I'm a hippie liberal college idiot

To sort of keep this on topic: What will Imus' future hold? Will he ever be allowed back on terrestrial radio?

Not that I would pity the multimillionaire if he was out of a radio job from now on, but I'm curious as to what people think...

Which is true. But, you are not realizing the double standard in all of this, 'ox. You watch the news, I know you do. Firing him was not the answer.

Re: CBS fires Imus

The only racism in America today is the white people, for us not to be able to speak freely based on our color. --i'm not even going to go there on how wrong this is...

ok, for MMM & mike, who apparently have a problem reading what i wrote, lets play that good old game of copy & paste & reply on the messageboards, shall we?

personally, i don't think it's right for Imus (ok, i'll give it up to MMM, imus himself isn't saying this, but lots of his backers are) and his backers to be pointing the finger back in the direction of the black community saying "well if they can do it, then we can do it too"

this is about as valid as the yapping i've been hearing (did you guys miss this part of the statement? lemmie clarify and say, maybe what i should have said in the first place... THIS IS NOT MY OPINION, BUT THIS IS WHAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE SAYING ON OTHER BOARDS AND NEWS SERVICES) saying the lacrosse guys should have been tried because "if it had been 3 black guys and a white woman the guys would be in prison by now"

hullo!!!! my point is that it IS racist
call it "reverse racism" if you will
that's why i brought it up
and that's why i equated it to the imus case

Re: CBS fires Imus

ps

cbs may say they fired him because of his mouth to appease people
but really, wouldn't they back him as they have for 20++ years if it
wasn't for the fact that he lost the MONEY

Re: CBS fires Imus

i dunno, does he regularly refer to his wife as a "ho"?
would he be offended if someone else refered to her as such?

Ok, first off, who knows how their relationship is. I would hope not.

Second, she has absolutely nothing to do with this.

Re: CBS fires Imus

I didnt want to have to get in to this , but i guess i have too! Its not racist to call someone a nappy headed hoe! If you think it is then you're an Ignorant Moron! The kind of person that wants to make everything about you! Drama queen , the world is against you! WHATEVER!!!! Im not saying Imus isnt a racist, im not saying he is! I dont listening to him, dont give a F#ck about him! The fact of the matter is ,there're 2 sorry sacks of shit making this out to be a much bigger deal than it is, just to put their irrelevant asses back in the spotlight (Sharpton & Jackson). Any chance they can get, they use and feed off the misfortune of others so they can be the dictator about all that is bad and worse between black and white people! Go back and read this whole thread A bunch of drama started from something an old dipshit said !!!!!..... In the words of my "MAN" Rodney King cant we all just get along!!!!! P.S. I am accepting donations.But everybody is welcome "PEACE AND LOVE"!
