I've listened to Imus once in a while, and though the comments he made about the Rutgers' team were inexcusable, he's made more then a few "objectionable" remarks about other people at times that should have been outed at that time.
That it has taken so long for his mouth to get him into real trouble is surprising-it was eventual, though. He's too full of himself to not think he could get away with it forever. Maybe he'll learn the lesson this time: Don't denigrate other people for the sake of a very cheap and tasteless (not to mention stupid) joke.
BTW, how come his producer isn't listed as part of the problem? He was responsible for the start of the "dialogue" with his "nappy headed" comment.
There could be a fine, though, from the FCC for this "joke"...perhaps he should talk to Howard Stern about that problem.
