Convicted felon: No problem
Saying even one politicially correct word: No way
Gee, if they fired all of the convicted felons, we wouldn't have too many people left in the entertainment industry, now would we?
In today's politically correct society, if you are in the public eye, your opinions can't really be your opinions anymore, you have to run them by your PR team to ensure that they do not offend any current "hot" buttons so they can sterilize your opinion and tell you what it should be according the the latest census poll that they have taken.

i think it is a little unfair. although i wasnt a big fan of don imus, it was his job as a radio deejay to host a "comedy" show. he might have gone a little far with the comment but it wasnt anything he hadnt said in the past.
people should definitely stop taking these kind of radio shows so seriously. the day is coming when we cant even tell a joke without someone being offended.

Um, because it's HER show. She owns part of the company. I don't think you know much about Martha if you're asking this question.

She wasn't conVICTED of rascism, insider trading and lying are a little different.. Her crime didn't have any impact on her dealing with the public..
