I agree that what he said was rude and out of line, but I've heard worse from others. I did think to myself, when I heard that GM had pulled their advertising from his show, that I am pretty sure that GM advertises on the rap stations in Detroit who play the songs that are just as offensive. I do see that as a double standard.
I think all the media attention makes it worse. I also just read that a Pennsylvania DJ was fired this morning for having a contest that involved people calling in and saying "I'm a nappy headed ho". I've not been a fan of shock jocks for a long time, so it wouldn't bother me a bit if they all got fired, but I've definitely heard Howard Stern say worse things and NOT get fired.
Imus will probably end up on Sirius now...

My mistake......I just watched the clip on youtube and the call in gues was Rosenberg.....I just figured it was him.
