Don Imus will appear on the Rev. Al Sharpton’s radio show Monday, five days after Imus made racially charged comments on his own show about the Rutgers women’s basketball team, Sharpton and MSNBC announced Sunday.
Despite Imus’ scheduled appearance, Sharpton said his position was unchanged: He wants Imus fired and intends to write the Federal Communications Commission about the matter.
“Somewhere we must draw the line in what is tolerable in mainstream media,” Sharpton said Sunday. “We cannot keep going through offending us and then apologizing and then acting like it never happened. Somewhere we’ve got to stop this.“
I say ixnay with all the NAACP protests, on-air grillings by Rev. Al, and Jesse picketing outside NBC (which owns MSNBC, where Imus is broadcast). Put his ass in a pit with these nappy-heads and let them stomp the shit out of him.
Nothing says “reformed racist” like a good old-fashioned ass-beating.AP: Sharpton hosting Imus on radio show

>In the words of his ancestors, "STONE him!!!!"On one hand – I'm excited that rascists are so comfy "again" that they will allow themselves to be revealed for who they are! Let us NOT get lulled by the inter-racial business partnerships & legality of interracial marriages (gay couples think they have it hard? ask my foreparents about the trials of legal marriages – but i digress…). That "good ol' boy" network is deep! If there is anyway of revealing where Imus' funds (& his boys' funds) are invested, so we can begin to boycott those products & industries that would make a statement! I'm tired of giving these crackaz a slap on the wrist! The repercussions need to be as DEEP as the rascist wounds inflicted, if that's possible!

>As a white man, I feel as though I should extend my own apologies and, at this point, would like to offer to do anything for those girls to make this right. Anything at all. You heard me, I'm willing to do it all. I'm willing to go far to bridge this gulf that separates us. Once again, I'm happy to carry out any physical mea culpa required.
