Personally, I think the only thing he did "wrong" was tell a bad joke. Either he spoke off the cuff without thinking about it first, which we all do, or he made a bad wager on how it would go over. I can understand the former, like I said, we all stick our foot in our mouths sometimes. The latter, well, I don't have much appreciation for Don Imus as a performer anyway.

But either way, the man will not suffer greatly from it. He makes $10 million dollars a year to sit and talk and tell bad jokes and he will go on talking and telling bad jokes. Meanwhile, apparently, we have to go through all this. Life just isn't fair.
