| 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
