    Don Imus

    Does this guy look dead? Keith Richards looks better than him. Get a shovel. Now he lives in New York City and wears a cowboy hat and boots. Is he the guy that makes Salsa?

    Just be glad he isn't the Naked Cowboy or there would be a rash of burned retinas in NYC.

    That was why I posted it. I was enjoying it when I saw a picture of Imus. Thus the post.

    I liked Imus and his show on MSNBC. I thought the last couple of years he got a little to full of himself though. I can't make a judgment on what he said because I don't know whats in his heart. He runs a ranch for kids with cancer in New Mexico. I think all the proceeds from the salsa sales go towards the ranch.

    Don Imus has cancer

    Don Imus Has Cancer

    Posted Mar 16th 2009 7:12AM by TMZ Staff

    Story developing ...

    About since the time the US Supreme Court decided that Marconi was a fraud and it was really Tesla who invented radio. 1943? (I exaggerate for humorous effect. It wasn't really that long ago, but Marconi really was a fraud.)

    Poor Don -- from legend to parody to irrelevant to patient. I'll light a candle in honor of what he used to mean to radio. Don't thank me; it's not much bother, and I'm not even Catholic.

    Even though he is not the most likable guy out there, I still feel bad that he is going through this. Cancer is a bitch.

    I always have a soft spot in my heart for people that have these illnesses and can still make jokes about it.

    THis is what Imus had to say.

    I'm changing the name of the Imus Cattle Ranch for Kids with Cancer to
    the Imus Cattle Ranch for Kids with cancer and me," he said, referring to his charity to help children with cancer.

    Imus got into trouble over alleged racist remarks he made on radio.

    He called female basketball players
    â??nappy-headed hos.â?

    Don Imus has long been known for his racism and sexism. Howard Stern had a field day with the incident that eventually got Imus fired from NBC, as Howard had said for years what a racist clown this douchebag was/is.

    Imus was pulled from MSNBC after the remark he made, and has not been able to rehab is image enough to return to network/cable tv.

    He has been making rascist remarks for years including one against Gwen Ifil who is/was a well respected journalist for NPR, referring to her as the cleaning lady.

    He blames his cancer on stress. Difficult for me to feel sorry for a guy whose primary career is based on hurting others.

    I've been listening to Don Imus for years. If you have never listened you don't really know him. If you only know him from the new reports then you really can't judge. His grumpy persona is just that. He gives hundreds of dollars to charity.

    I can take him or leave him.....I also wouldn't wish cancer on anyone. Aside from that.....there are going to be some people applauding this change of events is Don's life. Possibly the Rutgers Women's Basketball Team that he called Nappyheaded Hos!

    Not at all. That is a group of classy young women who, I believe, would never celebrate the suffering of someone who uttered a few words of insult at them. They're much, much better than that.

    I think it's a wee bit more than $100's of dollars. He has his cowboy ranch for kids with Cancer and he also does a lot of work with SIDS. I kinda like him but since he's been back on the radio he's been neutered. Best of luck to him.

    The first time I saw him on tv-I thought they had put a dead guy in front on a microphone. No joke-he looked like a mummified guy to me.

    Personally, I think everyone has something that makes others think they are "racist" or "sexist" or some other negative thing. With that said, I don't agree with some of the things he says by any means. At any rate, no one deserves to have cancer or be in pain. I do hope that things get better for him, it could make him realize not to be such an asshat.

    I listened to Imus for years as well. He brutally speared, slammed and roasted people equally - regardless of race, sex or political affiliation. He was a shock-jock. MSNBC didn't bat an eye at anything he said, including the Rutger's remark. It wasn't until a few days later, when it became a big national bru-ha-ha that they got all weak in the knees and fired him. Hypocrites.

    If you want to see classic Imus, read this transcript from his '96 speech at the Radio/TV Correspondents dinner, where President and First Lady Clinton (who were his friends) were in attendance. http://www.imonthe.net/imus/ispeech.htm

    It's kind of ironic that he has cancer, considering all that he's done for kids with cancer, but not that shocking - considering his age and previous lifestyle.

    I wish him well.

    Don Imus has had a lot of health problems over the years.

    In his early years, he had bad drug and alcohol problems.

    He didn't have to come out with this because it is a private matter and it is nice that some people wish him well.

    Does anyone remember that Imus met with the women of Rutger and he apologized?

    I realize it might never be enough for some people.

    In todays environment, anyone who has to talk for a living will say something politically incorrect.

    Irish, I think you are right....they would be above that. I posted earlier today before I headed out to work. Just got home and after reading all the other posts it sounds like the person who mentioned he is something of a shockjock.....I think they are right. It does sound like he has helped alot of children and many other causes. Plus the fact he is from a different era. My father who has long been gone, would also make statements that in todays world could very much get him in trouble.
    Is his cancer terminal. Hope they can do alot for him. Often the truth is somewhere in the middle.

    That's not true. Off the top of my head I can think of many people, like, my entire family, all of my friends, myself. I could go on.

    I dont have a problem with Imus, and I would take him any day over Howard Stern.

    His cancer is Stage II so I suspect with treatment he will do just fine.

    I wish him well.
