As you all know from my posts in this furm, I'm the first person to scream when people are racist or post racist things. But if you don't listen to the Don Imus radio show, then it's hard to understand.

The best way I can explain it is that they do parodies the same way Dave Chappelle does, or the same way the old television program "All in the Family" did. While the comments mentioned earlier in this thread were clearly racist and were said NOT during a parody, the comments brought up in this article of yours here were clearly from a parody (or several of them).

If you want to really see racism, check out his "Mayor Ray Nagin" parody:
