Don Imus

Don Imus, who is known for his crude comments and shock value, has been the subject of controversy for the past week. Imus made some racial slurs on his Imus In The Morning Show referring to the Rutgers girls basketball team as "nappy headed ho's." Imus known for his racially charged comments issued an apology to the girls, which most of the public seemed to think was apathetic and meaningless.
I think that this behavior in our day and age is unnacceptable. There is no reason that Imus should continually be allowed to say racially charged comments on live networking. I read from several sources that this is close to his 50th "racially insensitive comment." Since he has a history of making such comments, he should lose his job as anyone else would in that position. What he said is unacceptable.
