Don Imus in Talks to Resume Radio Show...on ABC
It was predictable. Except most thought Imus would reappear on satellite radio. But there is a market for bigotry. And if you are big enough you can get away with anything in America (i.e., Martha Stewart, Kobie Bryant, OJ Simpson, Paris Hilton, etc.,etc.). Just months ago Donnie was run out of town. Now it is all forgotten. He will be back on the public airwaves spewing out his racist filth. It's all about the Benjamins, as they say:
Don Imus has reached a settlement with CBS over his multimillion-dollar contract and is negotiating to resume his broadcasting career.
Imus and CBS Radio “have mutually agreed to settle claims that each had against the other regarding the Imus radio program on CBS,” the network and Imus’ attorney Martin Garbus said in a joint statement Tuesday.
[...]Meantime, Imus is talking to WABC-AM and other stations about making a possible comeback, a person familiar with the talks told The Associated Press. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the details had not been announced, also said the deal with CBS calls for a “non-disparaging” agreement that forbids the parties from speaking negatively about each other.
