one of the last true editorialists. You hate him one day and you love him the next. Isn't that great, a columnist with no allegiance. ESPN shoved him out the door a year ago for not giving out canned opinions. Now we're left with the ESPN sheep. Neat a network where everyone shares the same opinion. At least in news you get a choice with FOX or CNN. In sports you have no choice. Michael Wilbon referred to Imus as a Klansman the other day and said that he's...GASP!...always mean to Hillary Clinton. Hmm...wonder what the real problem Michael Wilbon has with Don Imus.
Anyways back to Whitlock. He writes:"Rather than inspire us to seize hard-earned opportunities, Jesse and Al have specialized in blackmailing white folks for profit and attention. They were at it again last week, helping to turn radio shock jock Don Imus’ stupidity into a world-wide crisis that reached its crescendo Tuesday afternoon when Rutgers women’s basketball coach C. Vivian Stringer led a massive pity party/recruiting rally. Hey, what Imus said, calling the Rutgers players "nappy-headed hos," was ignorant, insensitive and offensive. But so are many of the words that come out of the mouths of radio shock jocks/comedians."
