Imus degraded women? Wow, last I heard women wanted to be treated equal?

Imus and every other radio personality make fun daily of men...where are the women standing up and saying they need to apologize and stop the degradation of men? Ooops, can we say hypocrites? Or if there isn't an hypocrisy, then women truly don't want equality, but rather special protection.

1. You live in a very special world, don't you?
2. I do not understand your question. I do not think we want to make fun of men or degraded men. Can you be more specific?
3. Can you prove this being done? Most radio personalities are men so where are you getting this?
4. What makes you think him calling women he doesn't know or has never seen prior to them playing a basetball game, hoes is okay? He had no right to disparage him in that way. NBC wasn't forced to fire him, advertisers just used the power of their free speech to pull their ad money from his show. We want to be treated equal. We don't want to be judged on the basis of women being sexual creatures that can be degraded by a man when they have done nothing sexual at all. Notice their are no sexist slurs for men, but dozens for women.
5. First of all, how about giving some attention to the Tennessee girls who actually wond the basketball game?! It was absolutely hypocritical of MSNBC, CBS and any sponsors to cower to what was nothing less than intimidation and more likely a not so subtle threat from Jackson and Sharpton. As of 9:25 p.m. this evening, the official Rainbow Push Coalition website had a total of 88 votes on the question of Imus being fired. 88 votes. The sponsors of Imus' show have enjoyed the promotional benefits of it for years and years. OK, they want to "punish" him, pull the ad revenue for 2 weeks and DONATE IT to the Imus Ranch for Kids with Cancer. Only one businessman has shown real "abdominal fortitude" in this situation and that is Fred Lundgren of KCAA-AM radio in San Bernardino (Loma Linda) California. KCAA-AM will begin to air the BEST OF IMUS starting this Monday morning, April 16, 2007 and it is available via Internet (audio and studiocam) via http://www.kcaaradio.com Anybody who has truly been a listener of Imus, knows he is NOT a hateful or mean man. His grumpiness is part of the schtick and he is in fact a brilliant radio announcer/producer and comic. The man refers to his own beautiful wife as "that Green ho" because of her interest in matters of environment. Imus being removed from the public airwaves at the will of a minority of people who could have turned the dial if they didn't want to hear him is UNAMERICAN and a threat to our First Ammendment rights. So don't go looking at a GM dealer for a new or used car. Leave home without your American Express and get your copies made at Office Depot instead of Staples. As for Proctor & Gamble, try Great Value products available at any Wal*Mart and specifically for coffee, you just gotta try Imus Ranch Foods available at selected stores and online at http://www.imusranchfoods.com Imus Fans unite!
