Oh No! IMUS IS Back!

Starting December 3, 2007, Don Imus will return to the airwaves on WABC in New York City. This station is the home of Rush Limbaugh, Paul Harvey, John Gambling, and makes no pretense about being balanced. It's a right wing bastion. According to Rev. Al Sharpton, the station has not made any overtures to the Black Journalists Association, which is what Sharpton feels should happen if the revived Imus show is not to contain the same sort of racist material as led to Imus' firing in the Spring. Some things never change, or maybe they will. Let's see which of his former cronies and guests return. Will Tim Russert, Frank Rich, Maureen Dowd, and a whole host of liberal politicians who were once mainstays on the show return in December? It will be interesting to watch this play out.
