Aging, racist, past-his-prime, Don Imus, is in final negotiations with FOX Business Network to simulcast his radio show, more than two years after he was booted off MSNBC and CBS Radio for calling the mostly African-American Rutgers women’s basketball players, “some nappy-headed hos.”
His derogatory comments cost him such high-profile advertisers as General Motors and American Express who pulled their spots off his MSNBC show. After MSNBC cancelled the “Imus in the Morning” simulcast, CBS Radio also cancelled his program.
Somehow, FOX seems like a perfect fit for someone as lame and irrelevant as Don Imus. May they be very happy together.
From the Left 
He’ll fit in well there. I’m sure he’ll get his fair share of Krazy Klanservative Kallers.
Angry, self-important, racist, and dumb. Just the kind of person FAUX News loves to hire.
It’s a perfect match for both of them.
I never quite understood what his talent is?
He sits, slouched in a chair, cowboy hat over his face and mumbles. I suppose this, what? Comforts people in the early morning hours? Is his audience former fans of Hee Haw and wish the show would return?
Socks – I remember Imus back when I lived in New York City and was attending college. Morning radio was dominated by Howard Stern and Imus. While Stern is genuinely creative and entertaining, Imus always seemed genuinely mean. I think Imus’ demographic is the angry, older white male.
FOX really is a freakshow.
A carnival of oddities and misfits who seem to have escaped from a circus or a mental institution.
How can FOX top this? Maybe offer Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme a job when she’s released from prison?
Imus is just old cat from another day and time.
He’s like Pat Buchanan. Harmless, would probably be OK to have a beer with but, no one I want to ask home to meet my wife and family.
I don’t think Imus wants to bring back the hangin’ tree but one brother on the SCOTUS is enough. Ha!
Anus creeps me out.
Wonders never cease. I thought he had passed on he is so old. Will Anus never die?
Oh well…where the hell else would he have ended up? I’ll watch about as much of him as I have in the past two years.
Yet another loser to join the long list of them at FOX. Sarah will be next. When you quit or get fired because you are stupid, FOX can’t wait to pick you.
“Anus in the Morning!” LMAO That’s brilliant. I can’t stand Imus. He’s old and conservative and has a problem with women and gays. Leave it to FOX to hire him.
He sounds perfectly dreadful. Glad I don’t know him.
I hate Faux News. I wish Murdoch’s fascist propaganda empire would go bankrupt.
Imus was the first. For all you youngsters who don’t understand satire, Imus did it before anyone did. Stern would not be here if it weren’t for I-Man. For all of you on the left, wait until you grow up. Then you’ll understand.
