:tup: > **[Imus hires attorney, will likely sue CBS - CNN.com](https://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/05/03/imus.cbs/index.html)** > > Former radio talk show host Don Imus has hired one of the country's top trial lawyers to sue CBS Radio following his dismissal last month for making racial and sexual on-air comments about members of the Rutgers University women's basketball team. > “Company (CBS Radio) acknowledges that Artist’s (Imus’) services to be rendered hereunder are of a unique, extraordinary, irreverent, intellectual, topical, controversial and personal character and that programs of the same general type and nature containing these components are desired by Company and are consistent with Company rules and policies.” Probably not a real good thing to have in someone’s contract who you fired for being controversial. :lol: ---

[quote=“Darksyde,post:15,topic:28712"”] I do not like his show at all. However F’n Awesome Imus. Sue the shit out of them [/quote] Agreed. I watched about 5 minutes of his show and decided I’d never watch it again, but the way he was lynched by the media and the black community was 10x worse than anything he’s ever said. ---
