‘Nappy headed hoes’ remark gets Imus blue balled as GM pulls out early
It’s funny how one stupid and thoughtless comment can get your popular show pulled off the air after huge advetisers, like GM pull there ads. Don Imus should’ve thought twice before making racist remarks towards the Rutgers women basketball team, calling them “nappy headed hoes.” Now since most of the show’s biggest advertisers like, General Motors, said that they no longer want to run their ads during the show, NBC has decided to cancel broadcasting ‘Imus in the morning’ altogether.

The Imus show was suspended for two weeks starting this past Monday. The media company said Wednesday they will no longer run the who and will continue to assess the situation and apologize to the women of the Rutgers basketball team.

I think it is ironic that Imus for sure a liberal lapdog got skewered by his own kind!!!

The media could have left this alone and nobody would have ever known because no one ever watches the show. He had the lowest ratings on the planet!! I don't know why they picked this comment out of the thousands he has said over the years.

And mean while Al Sharpton a Black Criminal ( I mean reverend) walks untouched about the things he said about the Duke Lacrosse team players. Further showing that the PC police consistantly have a double standard!!!

I think they were just waiting for Imus to say something to fire him. They didn't really care about what he said!!

I knew there were a few things about clean cut Al!!

"The television show HBO's Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel showed a 1983 FBI videotape in which Al Sharpton is seen talking about laundering drug money with former mobster Michael Franzese, a Mafioso-turned-undercover-FBI informant posing as a cocaine dealer."

"First, in 1987, black teenager Tawana Brawley claimed that six white law enforcement officers -- including then-assistant district attorney Steven Pagones -- had abducted and raped her, scrawled racial insults on her body and smeared her with feces. Miss Brawley refused to speak with authorities or the media, but Sharpton and her two other advisers were soon making wild claims. Sharpton compared then-state Attorney General Robert Abrams, a Jew, to Adolf Hitler. All three linked then-Gov. Mario Cuomo to organized crime and the Ku Klux Klan.

Within a year, a grand jury announced the story was a hoax and specifically cleared a Fishkill police officer and Pagones. Pagones sued Sharpton and the other 2 advisers for more than $150 million for defamation."

Whoa.... There is too mmuch to put down about Sharpton. One thing clear he is racist and that is confirmed by the many incidents in his life where he has had it in for Jewish people. My favorite had to be the buy black commitee where he and his friends tried to get everyone to boycot Jewish retailers and reffered to all of them as "crackers".

I say, "By their fruits ye shall know them"!! This one is a bad fruit and it is too bad that anyone looks up to this man let alone anyone of his race!!

Roller 215.... You know I was thinking. In order to help you out with your I hate White people cause. I was thinking that we could give you reparations for all of the evil whites have committed against Black people.

How about I give you a donkey (yes a jackass) and a little patch of desert in Africa and you can take your whitey race baitin' self back to where your ancestors came from.

Or do you want the comforts of the good ole' USA?

Guess that white man isn't so bad after all for bringing your ancestors here!!

Dude quit hating on white people that had nothing to do with racial anything.

Why don't you look at the demise of your race over the past 30 years and see that is was caused by wolves in sheep clothing leaders like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. They don't care about anybody but themselves!!!

Name one great black leader in the past 30 years. I'll bet you will have a hard time finding one. I can name a few but you will probably call them Uncle Tom's.

umm maybe because I'm from Vancouver and grew up in a community of many different cultures who all appreciate each other, well I just don't understand this black or white thing.
You yanks put to much focus on your differences and not enough of your similarities. Yes slavery was bad but both people should let it go, what's happening is you're being slaves to your past. Life is like a mirrow, how you look at it is what you will see.
I don't think my comments will change your view as I'm sure somebody is going to justify their reason to hate. As for the radio DJ, who cares, it's one persons comment and I find it funny how one persons words can erupt so much pain in others, actually not funny, sad. Like I said people focus on negative issues and when that is your focus that is where you life will lead.
If indeed he did mean to be derogatory, why not just feel sorry for him that his mind can't see good things and he needs to put down others probably to feel better about himself, it's just a vicious circle.

Come to the States and live for a while and you will find out. I know because I work with a lot of Africa-american everyday. Most of these people think the government 'owes' them because of the past. But in fact the U.S government is trying it's best to accomodate them. Does the term reverse-discrimination sound familiar? There are companies and schools won't accept white because of the Affirmative Action law.Even they were born in this country they don't learn to speak the American English. They also have a big attitude problem. When anything happens, they will blame it on discrimination. If they hate this country so bad why don't they just return to their original country and try to be constructive and help their own counrty, save all the sorrow and grief. One more thing, immigrants from African countries are vastly different, they work hard, and they are very appreciative of what U.S has for them.

I just think it is funny how liberals claim to be the protectors of free speech but when they don't like something you say all hell breaks loose. "I guess that is the sacrifice we all have to make to live in a liberal utopia",....... I almost barfed in mouth writing that!!

Yes really, Asians and Mexicans in this country are friendly and easy-going. They like peace and don't really resist.

I don't think women's college basketball has ever gotten this much press. They should be thanking Imus for all the publicity.

This really has nothing to do with the automotive world anyway. Why is this even posted on here?!?
