44. Exactly! This could be the tipping point that brings Imus down,

and it's well-deserved from what I'm reading here. I've watched him very little but enough to see him go too far, and allow his minions to go too far as well.

People suggesting boycotting Imus's sponsors but Sharpton's protests may bring Imus down without a boycott.

It would be a good idea for those who have heard Imus or his side men make bigoted "jokes" in the past to write MSNBC and say you agree with Al Sharpton, that this has been going too long and they could do better.

The best comics make fun of their own foibles and/or get their material from human foibles in general, instead of focusing on race, sex, religion, ethnicity, etc.
