Revisiting Don Imus, Amid The Current Controversy, Mike Wallace Looks Back At His 1996 Interview With Don Imus (Entertainment, 18 articles) [UPDATE]
|
The speediness and manner of his dismissal from CBS and MSNBC, after calling the players " nappy-headed hos may foreshadow a ripple effect on talk radio, industry observers say. Imus - wearing blue jeans and his trademark cowboy hat and accompanied by his wife, Deidre - rolled up to the Princeton meeting in a black stretch limo. Since Imus used the phrase "nappy-headed hos" on April 4, untold numbers of people have been pouring out their views on call-in talk shows, on Internet sites and blogs, in classrooms and on the street. Black public figures make hateful, racist comments all the time, and not only is there no outrage equal to this, but people hardly notice. NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. - C. Vivian Stringer said Friday that the team had accepted radio host Imus' apology . Hard-working New York Times media columnist David Carr makes a similar observation, noting, as did the Journal, that watchdogs Media Matters for America played a big role in disseminating Imus' comments online . Before either happens, Imus will sit down with officials from CBS Radio to work out the financial details surrounding his abrupt dismissal.

I, for one, can't comment on the "chants" simply because I 'm not living in Newcastle, or England for that matter. The Newcastle supporters are known for their patient and sympathy with their team for years and years, and they have always been there to support no matter what I bet your a star reader? And from the south? Ever been north of luton? Where have you found your research? At least the wizard of smog has the right idea SACK THE BOARD.
