Why did NBC suspend Don Imus effective in a weeK?

He has a week to plan his vacation.

It's all about the almighty ratings which equals $$$ for the corporation.

Just like when celebrities say vile vicious things and take a stint in rehab, all of this is a joke.

    He got it because everyone wanted him fired but he brings in too much revenue to do that

    They are doing a telethon later this week for children.

    Nice job jumping to conclusions. AGAIN

    Edit: Any one of you sensitive creatures actually watch the show ever?

    Didn't think so.

    to make sure they dont get too many nasty letters form jerks who sit around all day blaming everyone else for their problems. and im sure the people that were actually listening that morning were fans of his and like his show for what it is. but it got into the papers and news channels and now people who have never listened and some I bet didnt even know who he was are now OUTRAGED!!! well they need to realize this is america, and we have freedoms that far outtrump their crybaby B.S.

    I personally don't feel he should have been suspended at all! This whole thing is ridiculous! As far as his vacation, it will probably be at his ranch, with the children who have cancer for which he supports!

    it's funny to see how the negroes are monitoring white broadcasts to check up to see that we are behaving. has anyone listened to BET tv, black night at the apollo and any of the other colored radio stations? they disrespect whites on a daily basis. but that's ok, because whites don;t protest or boycott KFC

    Source(s): You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. You call me "Whiteboy", "Cracker", "Honkey", "Whitey" and you think it's OK. But when I call you, nigger, Kike, Towelhead, Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink you call me a racist. You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live? You have Miss Black America. You have the United Negro College Fund. You have Martin Luther King Day. You have Black History Month. You have Cesar Chavez Day. You have Yom Hashoah You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi You have the NAACP. You have BET. If we had WET(white entertainment television) we'd be racists. If we had a White Pride Day you would call us racists. If we had Miss White America, we'd be racists. If we had white history month, we'd be racists. If we had an organization for only whites to "advance" our lives, we'd be racists. If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships, you know we'd be racists. There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US, yet if there were "White colleges" that would be a racist college. In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists. You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists. You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist. I am proud. But, you call me a racist. Why is it that only whites can be racists?
