Re: Don Imus
Why did his advertisors start cutting funding? Why did MSNBC and CBS cut him off? Why does the news make such a big deal about it?
It is all about money. Execs dont give a shit about racism, but it makes them look bad if they do not cut Imus. The companies dont care about what people think and society, they know they are losing big bucks if they keep supporting him.
I am sick of the news media especially prominent black sports figures in the media talking about how Imus deserved this, and how they were really upset he didnt lose his job. Honestly the only good thing I heard from a black person was Charles Barkley(yeah I know unbelievable).
He said Imus said stupid stuff, and stupid people say dumb things, but he shouldnt fully lose his job. It doesnt solve the problem of racism. The media, companies, CBS and NBC dont care about how to end racism or deal with it in the US. They just want a quick scapegoat to blame and fix all the problems.
I am saying the majority of this message board probably is content with the same, and that is bad.
