I don't like or dislike Isiah. I don't know who the hell he is outside of this Grey's Anatomy thing. I've never watched the show and have only seen photos of him Essence or whatever.
Mistake or not, he's an idiot.

1. You cant put it all on DL....for one thing it was a question that was put forth to him by Jay Leno....this happened in May...the protests that came about didn't happen until this past weekend so...sorry...this is not something that "he dug up". And in most places, Imus may have faded but there are still lots of reprecussions due to what he said 2 months ago. Many in the media are still discussing censorship and what contingencies have to be done in order for this to not occur again.
There have been a lot more firings since this went down and tehre a lot of people who are still discussing this (we are for one aren't we?) in light of if this is considered a double standard and his remarks after the fact.
2. ....never mind...it would be a waste of good posting space
