Just what did Imus really say?
Posted by: wd8chl on Tuesday, May 08, 2007 - 10:48 PM
...and did Sharpton even hear it? Channel 19 here aired the actual sound bite of what Don Imus really said about Rutgers. And I'm just gonna say it-if someone like Chris Rock, or any o­ne of a thousand other black comics had said exactly the same thing in exactly the same context, everyone would rolling in the isles. No o­ne would call it racist. No o­ne would call it degrading. No o­ne would even think twice about it. But because a white man said it, well, we all see the result.I dislike Don Imus as much as anyone, and while I don't follow basketball, I'm sure the Rutgers team deserves a big congratulations for a job well done this season, and probably every other season as well. But geez, talk about making a mountain out of a molehill.If Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and all these other so-called 'reverends' want to really do something about prejudice, they need to look at themselves first.Jim Barbour
