I don't want to hear anyone talk about context unless you are (or were -- as I was) an Imus listener. Anyone who ever listened to him for any period of time -- and not just the now-infamous 10 second soundbite -- would know immediately that Imus was/is not a racist person.

I listened to him for more than 20 years. And, I, as anyone else who ever listened to him, know how much money he's donated to charities, how much money he's raised for charities and other worthy causes; they would know that he's a good guy who simply said something wrong. Yes, it was offensive... shit, get in line with the thousands of people he's insulted over the years -- from politicians to athletes, to his very own staff, executives... you name it! AND, CBS KNEW this....! Heck, they extended his contrat a few months ago and offered him 10 mil per year!! And, now, they're "appalled"? Please...!

I hope he wins... and wins big.
