Wow....big mistake he made when he opened his mouth. I am not getting into the whole debate with a 10 ft pole but wow...I am sure he regrets it big time.

Re: They just announced on WFAN that Imus has been fired - his show has been cancelled for good

again- I hate to bring up O and A- but they had a caller today that made a VERY good point

the DJs on hot 97 says not so nice things about white people every day- and that's ok

if you can dish - you should be able to take it

this is so silly- I'm sure he will get a show on sirus or XM (or I hope he does- his shoe being canceld will effect someone my Uncle reps and therefore his $$$$ also)

Wow. I guess an apology doesn't mean anything anymore.

Maybe people should boycott WFAN and MSNBC. Chat Icon

yep - that's pretty much the deciding factor for most everything. I'm sure their sponsors threatened to drop out b/c they would get backlash from certain communities.

yup, either yesterday or today, 3 sponsors backed out of his program...including a biggie: Proctor & Gamble.

that's the reason he was fired. they didn't care about what he said, they care that $$ would be lost in advertising

I think thats doubtful. My opinion is the only way satellite will pay his salary is if they know they are going to get new listeners from it. I dont think he has enough draw to bring new listeners to satellite radio.

Especially due to the merger, I would not be surprised if they did not bring on any new personalities until that is given the yay/nay.
