Don Imus Drops The Race Card Again
Don Imus has once again decided to inject race into his radio show. This goes to show you it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks.
During an on-air conversation Monday about the arrests of suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam “Pacman” Jones, Imus asked, “What color is he?”
Told by sports announcer Warner Wolf that Jones is “African-American,” Imus responded: “There you go. Now we know.”
I really do not get why Don would do this after causing such an uproar over his “nappy headed” comments about the Rutger’s women’s basketball team a few months ago.
Civil rights leader Al Sharpton issued a statement calling the exchange disturbing “because it plays into stereotypes.” He says his National Action Network was still deciding how to respond.
Representatives for Imus and WABC Radio haven’t returned calls.
