Don Imus--He sucks

I have never listened to the Don Imus before, until this outburst about the Rutgers women’s basketball team. I read on numerous websites the outrageous comments he has made about people and their races or religious views. I have never been so appalled since I listened to Howard Stern’s radio show! I can’t believe that CBS still allows Don Imus to continue his radio show, after all of the comments he has made in the past. He made a racial slur about the Rutgers women’s basketball team, which is totally unacceptable. Then he tried to apologize, and make people think that he actually meant it. I think that the only reason he made the apology was to save his professional career. Obviously if he would have let this go and never apologized to the outraged team, then his show’s ratings would have plummeted. So I do not think that his apology was heartfelt, I think it definitely had a motive behind it, and that motive was to save his professional career. I think we have given Don Imus too many chances, and all he does is continue to insult people. What I don’t understand is why people continue to tune into his show, after all of the horrible comments he has made about races and religious views. I think Don Imus and Howard Stern should both be kicked off the radio!
