More Imus

MANIFESTO

Headlining a story that's outside its geographical circulation, the Hartford Courant goes front page with the Imus story this morning while one of its columnists has this to say:

When radio icon Don Imus delivers his personal mea culpa to the Rutgers women's basketball team, they'd better make sure to bar the parents.

If I were the father of one of those young women I'd want to slap the satire out of the venerable morning host for calling the team a bunch of "nappy-headed hos."

At any rate, the whole thing has become tiresome as the actual radio program has turned into a snoozathon of angst and apologia.
