the girls already had a press confrence about it they said there meetin with him privately to talk about it, the best part was when he was on the al sharpton show apoligizing and some guy called in and was talkin about the comments he made about sickle cell and imus said " i just cant get through to you people" haha
Yeah, primarily blacks. Because the NAACP, ACLU and other liberal groups have made Blacks overly sensitive to racial comments and other ethnicities fearful of making any racial comments towards Blacks. The result is that many Blacks now perceive any ethnic/racial comment directed towards them as being a racists remark. The hypocrisy is that they (Blacks) turn around and make outright racists remarks about non-Blacks (specifically Whites) and don't think twice about it because they can get away with it. Yeah, Blacks "get excused from sayin' shit like that."
Because a lot of Black activists/commentators don't want to condemn the thoughts/behaviors of those within the Black community. They don't want to be labeled as a "hater," a "sellout", an Uncle Tom," etc. So rather than looking at the real issues in the Black community and stating the real causes of these issues (which if they're honest with themselves are often times of their own making), they end up taking on issues that are less meaningful, but have an "us against them" appearance that places the blame on other individuals or groups. It's much easier to garner the support of the Black community this way and it ultimately makes them look like a champion of the people (but this eventually hurts "the people").
Tune into Larry Elder.
Right, right. Has anyone seen these broads? Not one of them is physically attractive. They're a tremendously ugly lot and in contrast to the Tennesse team, they look like "some rough girls" that are "nappy-headed." As for being "hoes," that may be slightly questionable, but there are a number of Blacks in mainstream media that refer to Black women as such and are never viewed as being racists/misogynists.
Right, right. You've got Black comedians, rappers, actors, etc. making "racially insensitive" comments about White girls on a daily basis and everyone just laughs it off. As a society (because of the aforementioned groups) we've become conditioned to accept this. It's almost as if they've got the right to do this because their history in the U.S. has been that of denigration, subjugation, and ostracism, therefore, out of pity (guilt), liberals have granted them immunity when it comes to making "racially insensititve" comments (it's their chance to get "back at us" and poke a little fun).

The media, like usual, is blowing this out of proportion.
C. Vivian Stringer, you're way too dramatic. You're not spearheading some social movement and this incident is not going to go down as an important moment in women's history, so ease up with the impassioned speeches. All of this will be forgotten by next week. Just be glad that your no name basketball program is getting undeserved recognition.
Women's basketball team, why are people so proud and so inspired by you guys? You've done nothing extraordinary. You've been called a couple names and have commented on being called a couple names. There is nothing prideful or inspiring about that. If you want to return to obscurity or "oblivion" stop making insignificant comments seem more significant than what they are and, therefore, making the issue bigger than what it is.
Imus, you shouldn't have apologized because you wouldn't have apologized had no one made a big deal out of this. That's who you are and that's what you felt at the time. You should have stuck with it and ridden out the storm. It bothers me to see people make disingenuous apologies because it's "the right thing to do."
Feminists and liberals disgust me.
Quotation Crazy

And what would their sentiments contribute?
How long can a three line long poor attempt at humor by an old ass washed up dude be made news out of?
How many pages could you write on it, 15, 30?
Should we show the girls parents? What about the girls grandparents?
Girls "Yes I am offended"
Girls relatives "We are offended"
Black Community "We are offended"
How long will this non-news be news?
I don't even listen to "imus". Who the fuck is Don Imus?

Its all about Green. Black folks is pullin they money, presurrin advertisers to pull their ads from the show. Staples just decided to cut out..Thats some lost revenue. Good shit. Shows that folks have some power, take it to their dollar. Wouldnt matter if Black folks wasnt spendin they wouldnt care. Color Green rules everything around me CREAM get the money....
Once again idiots getting up in arms over nothing. Imus wasnt being racist. The other guy, yeah he was. Imus nah, what Imus said was funny. People get hurt over the littlest shit but then turn around and practice the same racism that they dislike. Waahh fucking cry about to someone who actually gives a fuck.
Oh yeah FUCK STEVE HARVEY HES A HORRIBLE COMEDIAN, AND FUCK TERRENCE HOWARD TO. Racist fucks, love to see em get stomped.

The average black person doesnt really care because they already know most non-black people hate on black folks anyway. Imus wasnt funny, maybe to some southern appalachian Men that love to make eachother squeal like pigs.
And really the only people gettin hurt are the ones whoe are all upset that people are talking about this. I mean damn I never seen so many people upset over Imus being suspended for 2 weeks. Hos isnt as bad as being called white. I would be really upset if he called them white. I would never want to be called that, that would mean I would talk funny and wear tight pants.
