RIP: Don Imus 1982-2007

Imus


Don Imus may not be on the air anymore, but he lays in my heart. Ever since Jan. 2005 I watched him every morning and learned more from his show then most would believe.


If your a judgemental bastard who never watched Imus but hated him anyway, lets go over all the good he did in his career.



  1. In 1990 The Imus In The Morning Radio-thon started where Imus would spend two days raising money for Tomorrows Children's Fund and The CJ Foundation for SIDs.

  2. In 1999 Don Imus started the "Imus Ranch for Kids with Cancer" for cancer patients and siblings of victums of SIDs.

  3. In 2005 started concern about Autism and tried to use his radio show to get the Pharmacutical Industry to do something.

  4. Late 2006 he fought for Joe Barton to stop playing games with the Autism bill he was holding off until everyone played his game.

  5. He fought politicians to raise the death benifits of American Troops $12,000 to $250,000. In my opinion that makes the government look worse then Imus and his bad joke.


There is a lot more I could get into but lets leave it at that. The people who supported Imus getting off the air didn't hurt him. Imus has enough money to raise his kid to a high-end college. You hurt the kids with cancer and autism Imus fought so hard to help.


Thanks "Emperors of Black People"!
