Etan Takes on Imus

Etan Thomas's latest SLAM column takes on Imus. I'll give you three guesses as to what he thinks about the issue. This is the synopsis:

Yesterday it was announced that Imus would be suspended for two weeks, but I have a problem with that as well. Would they have suspended him if there had not been this massive public outrage? This not being the first racial insult he has thrown on air, how many chances does he get? Imus has made it a pattern to make disparaging, hurtful, insulting, hateful remarks. Needless to say I have heard enough to come to the conclusion that it is time for him to go.

FWIW, Steve Politi writes an Imus column today focusing on the Rutgers players.
