Imus is done, for now, shouldn't others be told to hit the road? Try Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Savage and the other racist, sexist media types.

My dad just forwarded me an email from Media Matters for America which quotes David Brock the President and CEO of Media Matters on Don Imus being fired by CBS. Part of the text from that email is below and you can visit http://mediamatters.org/ to sign up to their mailing list and learn more about the state of our media today.

“Washington, DC - In the aftermath of CBS Radio's decision to cancel Don Imus' syndicated radio show Imus in the Morning, David Brock, President and CEO of Media Matters for America, released the following statement regarding the overall tone of talk radio and cable news today.”

"I applaud CBS for listening to reason and canceling Imus in the Morning. Viewers and listeners sent the clear message that they would no longer tolerate bigotry on America's airwaves," said David Brock, President and CEO of Media Matters for America, the organization first to post on Don Imus' racist comments of April 4th. "It is our hope that this incident will begin a broader conversation about the responsibility that news corporations, journalists, and media figures have to the American public. This is an opportunity for the media to truly raise the bar to a higher standard and return to the fundamentals of journalism."

Aren't there enough problems in our world today without these idiots sitting in front of the mics and cameras and filling our heads with such hateful speech?
