When a free pass is given to them but Imus gets torn apart by the media and everyone else, its just not right. I read earlier about how rap lyrics arent directed towards a specific group of people or a specific person and that makes it alright, thats just unbelievable to hear, so if Imus had avoided using Rutgers as an example and instead made a blanket comment about women in general we wouldnt care and he would still have his job? I highly doubt that to be the case.
    I wish people who say these things would actually do some research. I don't feel like getting the links for Jesse Jackson but both he and Al Sharpton have spoken out against rappers who use violent and sexist language towards women:

    As far as the other thing you said about rap, rappers have said that because they aren't talking about college educated women and are talking about the groupies and other women who chase after them at shows, that it's different. You may not see it that way but it makes sense.

      I think it's possible that Imus' career isn't over. He could go to satellite radio where he could basically say whatever he wanted. I don't know if his following is strong enough for him to make the move though.

        Snoop Dogg, on the Imus situation:

        “It’s a completely different scenario,” said Snoop, barking over the phone from a hotel room in L.A. “[Rappers] are not talking about no collegiate basketball girls who have made it to the next level in education and sports. We’re talking about ho’s that’s in the ‘hood that ain’t doing sh–, that’s trying to get a n—a for his money. These are two separate things. First of all, we ain’t no old-*** white men that sit up on MSNBC going hard on black girls. We are rappers that have these songs coming from our minds and our souls that are relevant to what we feel. I will not let them mutha—-as say we in the same league as him.”
        Oh those hoes. It all makes sense now.

            Other than the old white guy part there really isn't anything wrong with what he said. Tupac said in an interview that he made songs like Keep Ya Head Up for his mother and his sisters but he had songs like I Get Around for the groupies and women who really are hoes.

              So, if Don Imus said he was speaking from his soul, that makes it OK to demean women?

                Considering that you're a product of your generation and a regular listener of rap music, it doesn't surprise me at all to hear you say that.

                  No absolutely not ok, he didn't have a dope beat in the background. If it was from his soul and he had a beat going, then yes he's set.

                    So true.

                    I just find it funny that the same radio stations that don't want Imus on the air were probably playing 50 Cent's latest hit this afternoon.

                      I don't even listen to mainstream rap or any rap where people talk about women like that so what I listen to is irrelevant.

                        I never said that I condone it but it's not outrageous to hear him say that considering the type of women who usually hover around a guy like him.

                          They're not gonna do that. To most of these jokers,Sharpton and Jackson can do no right.

                          Anyway,why does everyone act like this is the first time Imus has said something like this? Hell,he constantly refers to black people has "monkeys." He even called these girls jiggaboos. The only reason they got rid of the guy is because the sponsors were jumping ship. If they were firing him for what he said,they would have done that a long time ago.

                            That's true, I think almost all of his major sponsors left and without them msnbc has no reason to have him on the air.

                              All famous people have women who hang around them. Do you think Steve Nash would get into any trouble if he referred to his black female groupies as hoes?

                                I haven't heard any athlete refer to his groupies as hoes so there's no reason to speculate on that but there probably would be a backlash if he singled out only the black groupies and called them hoes. If he was referring to the groupies I wouldn't care but if he said that black women in general are hoes then that would be a big difference.
