Just for the record, NBC news announced this evening that Imus was
fired immediately and would not return even for his telethon. CBS has
not announced any change as yet so his telethon will likely be on
WFAN. Apparently most of the advertisers on the Imus show cancelled.
These included General Motors, Procter and Gamble, American Express,
and pharmaceuticals. This would leave an exoensive three-hour show
with no income and probably provided MSNBC with all that it needed to
fire Imus. I feel sorry for Chris Carlin. He had just got married,
didn't have much money, was terribly harassed by Imus, and now he has
no job.
I just wish that some of the denizens of this website, who revel in
free speech and spew obsenities, racial insults, and personal slander
could also be fired off rec.radio.shortwave. There are a lot of decent
people who do not post here because they don't need the name-calling
that ensues from sophomoric show-offs who never contribute anything
and wouldn't dream of helping a newcomer. I wonder if this site will
go the way of the old CB band where the bad drove off the good
(Gresham's Law).

OK - So -if- Imas is "Toast"

Then Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson must be
Jam and Jelly cause they are spread-out all over
the News trying to Pump-Up the Imas Story and
Get Some PAYOLA from NBC and CBC.

IMHO - $ivil Right$ for these two guys starts-and-ends
with Show Me The Money ~ RHF
