I wasn't suprised in the least of Imus" firing, but I was at the responses I got on my blog.A the majority of the replies I got differed with my opinion.I must admit,a lot of people brought up some very good points.The one I seemed to agree with the most was that Sharpton and Jackson are only out to further to further their own agenda.As a lot of people have already said they should be more worried about the black on black crime going on in the inner cities.This still can't undo or justify Imus' comments.Look how Howard Cosell was fired for his remarks on a Monday Night football game almost 20 years ago.Broadcasters in our political climate know the risks of making racial jokes and the invisible line they can't cross.Although I believe people should get to apologize and be forgiven the executives at CBS thought it was beyond the point of no return.
