Media & Journalism - April 2007

Bringing it out and talking about only causes more hurt and pain. Furthermore, it only divides blacks and whites more. Whites become cynical and resentful towards black people and makes them not want to interact with them. This little episode has taught me again to keep my distance from black people. Oh, and hire and fire at my company if that says anything.. ( hint: read between the lines ) Comments?

Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Paul Mooney . . . these men have told some great white people jokes ( I ain't gonna lie) But white people are just smiling and laughing along. Even Ralphie May has made some stingers about his own people. But y'all just laugh. Is it because it's true, it stings, or that you are in a room with a lot of black people?

The question states it all. There are many shock jocks and shows out there on the radio that say far worse things! I am a huge fan of O & A and ROVERS MORNING GLORY. Far worse things have been said and done on these shows, and one stupid comment people flip out, whats the deal, get over yourselves

Personally, i would think someone claiming to be so anti-racism like Al ought to be trying to PUT OUT the fire...NOT FAN THE FLAMES.
Make any sense???

In the wake of the Don Imus racial slurs, the "Reverend" Al Sharpton in a televised interview stated, 'Forgiveness is not the issue here."

In the Christian Bible it states that if a man asks forgiveness from man or god that such is his right. So where does a so called Christian minister get off debunking the concept of forgiveness? Imus apologized for his actions and is being punished; should not then a Christian minister 'turn the other cheek'?

Are Imus Limbaugh Coulter and their ilk comedians or what?
Every time these nasty hateful sociopaths accidentally spew something really evil and offensive they are "joking".

Imus couldn't have posted his joke on Yahoo questions and answers.

I belive that people like Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton are always the first to make something out of nothing when it comes to blacks in America. I am hispanic (not white) so a minority, those two are the first to make it Black vs White. I don't recall those two in a national spotlight when negative stories of them came out. It's not a Black and White thing Mr. Jessie (I am a very wealthy african american off of these types of issues) Jackson.

Are you getting sick of this constant cycle of has-beens (or never-wases) making an outrageous comment, getting blasted by losers like Al Sharpton, receiving tons of publicity, and then making numerous apologies?

Aren't we wasting our time with this nonsense? Aren't so-called "leaders" like Sharpton and Jackson lowering the racial debate by making it about idiots like Don Imus and Michael Richards instead of the larger issues?

Our country is stuck in a dead-end war, our national reputation is as low as it's ever been, and our federal government is as corrupt as it's ever been -- and Jesse Jackson, a supposed leader and role model of his people, is mounting numerous protests against Don Imus? Because of some stupid comment he made about a basketball team on his radio show?

Don't these people have anything better to do? Bigger fish to fry? Or are they as trivial and insignificant as their complaints make them out to be?

So do you think Imus should have really been suspended for what he said?

It is so funny that as soon as something happens that just shows the lack of unity in this country by its own citizens-ONCE AGAIN-how so many unintelligent, racially motivated people come out of the wood work yet can never show their faces on their comments or questions they ask?

Although we have come far, racism and gender-stereotyping is still alive and well, and since this Imus-Rutgers debacle, I see so many have once again come to the front and have shown their "true" sides. Yet wont show their faces. What are yall's thoughts?
