| 37. Has anybody pressured Keith Olbermann about Don Imus? |
|
Someone on DU told me that Imus called the tennis players Venus Williams and Serena Williams "apes" or something like that.
|
| -Al Sharpton demands Imus's dismissal, says he'll picket WFAN if he's not gone in a week |

If not for DUers hating him, I wouldn't know who Imus is. |
