Imust Defend Imus

    I have been watching Don Imus since late 2004 and I’ve always been a person to support free speech, no matter how outrageous it is, but using your right to free speech to limit others is awful.

Fox News reported on Don Imus saying that Tom Brokaw is not the most courageous person. This is news? Tom Brokaw isn’t a damn warrior he is an ex-talking head for the nightly news. He sat behind a camera and read what he was given to say. Why is this news?

Now before the damn right wing starts commenting I am going to comment on The Huffington Post. These people are just as awful as Fox News reporting that “Imus Should Have Stayed On the Ranch.” with reasons like:

For some reason, the RFD feed starts off with local New York news, intended for his WABC audience. Then there’s a break and he comes back on. Odd.

Did this blogger never see him on MSNBC? If you’ve never seen his show before why are you commenting on it?

“RFD also doesn’t know how to shoot him. Most of the time his eyes are obscured by the brim of his cowboy hat.”

He does that on purpose, he’s a freaking cowboy!

“Since most of his “Nappy head hos” supporters were right wingers, he has decided, at a time when the rest of the country has abandoned the party of Bush, to become a flaming Republican.”

Imus is NOT a Republican and he never was a liberal “nut-job” or a right-wing “wack-job.” There is such thing as being open to either side. I am not a right-winger and I support him. It’s called supporting the constitution for all and not to some. Does this mean Craig Crawford is a republican too?

“He has two African-Americans on the daily panel. They rarely say anything, and one of them, Tony Powell, who is there ostensibly to do sports, doesn’t seem very interested in either sports or being there in the first place, given his obvious discomfort in the studio. “

Tony no longer does the sports and they do talk often and have their own comedic spots. The show is called Imus In The Moring not Black Comedians In The Morning.

His show is the polar opposite of nearly every trend in America…both politically and stylistically. Period.

Lord forbid his show live up to the standards of The Today Show and Morning Joe. Why don’t you go attack The Colbert Report? His show is just like Imus’: Sarcasm with real Interviews.

Time Magazine is another source I cannot begin to tell you how awful they are. These people said Imus was going to do his Nappy Headed Ho thing again with a misquote of his first show. Well I have the first show right here and tell me if you think Imus isn’t sorry at all for what he’s done. How the hell is my researching abilities better then Time Magazine?
