No they shouldn't fire him. Let his listerners decide. if they stop
listening then he will go away by himself. I have a feeling that his
listenership doesn't really care.

Broadcast radio is first a business and if the principal sources of
revenue are walking out the door because of one out-of-control mike
jockey, then the jockey will be gone in short order.



I wonder what his actions towards minorities have been in the past.
Is he a bigot thru and thru or does he offer help up to minorities who
need it. Let his actions speak as loud as his words. Do not judge
him by a 5 seconds worth of microphone time. What is in his heart I
wonder. I don't think he is a bigot.

He actually had an interesting program at one time. Coarse, but
interesting beccause he dug into political situations and was popular
enough to attract some big names. He's pretty much turn into another
loudmouth.



The revs Jackson and Sharpton I'm sure are going to have a field day
with this and try and strong arm Imus and his producers and network
and so forth What a nice pair of nappy headed black turds those two
make. Totally disgusting pieces off **** - the both of them. I'd like
to meet them both in a dark ally some night. I'd show them some
justice at the business end of a Louisville slugger. They both
deserve to die.

Sharpton I think is little more than a thug behind clerical robes.
Jackson, is much more classy.



As far as the gun thing goes isn't a Remington 1100 a shotgun
autoloader? I recall buying a 700BDL bolt when I went to hunt in PA
cause they don't like autoloaders in PA.

Image is very important and the sooner the gun collectors, shooters
and hunters realize that the better their position will be. They come
across as reacting to situations rather than htinking them through.
The writer of that article had the guts to say what a lot of other
people feel and he paid the unfortunate price.

Imus made an intemperate remark about a very sensitive group and will
suffer much as that former writer for that hunting magazine did. I
forget his name, but the guy was a long established really classy
writer who stated the obvious about assault rifles. They were bad for
the image of the real hunter. The trained dogs from the NRA proceeded
to do their work and the magazine could see advertisers pulling back
so they axed him.

Sorry, you are very uninformed. The NRA had nothing to do with sponsers
pulling support for Zumbo. In fact the NRA was one of his sponsers.

Of course they did, if not directly then indirectly...good grief.....

Only
till after the others expressed their dissappointment did the NRA cut ties
with him. Calling them "terrorist rifles" is what did him in.

Obvious about assault rifles? Do you have any idea what you're talking
about?

I do indeed. And the image of Joe-sixpack and his assault rifle
collection is something that the hunters can do without. I believe he
alluded to the image problem in his comments.

You do realize Zumbo had a change of heard on the so-called "black
rifles". And that they operate EXACTLY the same way an Remington 1100 or
7400 work. And in fact they ARE used quite frequently for varmint hunting.

I do feel sorry for the hunting writer. I wonder if an exit like this
will make Imus an attractive commodity for satellite radio.

Free speech is a great thing. But it does come with consequences. As Zumbo
and Imus are finding out. Hopefully Rosie will as well.- Hide quoted text -

Don't fool yourself -
Jackson is an adulterer. That puts him in the same place as the
honorable Rev Sharpton.

Jesse HIJACK Jackson and Al Sharpton are like two peas in a pod.Where
one goes,the other one is sure to follow suit.
Don Imus got fired from msnbc and some sponsors.Kooky Katie Kouric
(Couric) got fired because of plagriarisim.They say things happen in
threes.Who is next? Oh,wait a minute,that DJ in Penns Woods
(Pennsylvania) done got fired today.
