let me chime in:
Original Transcript:
DON IMUS, Radio Host: That’s some rough girls from Rutgers. Man, they got tattoos and…
BERNARD MCGUIRK, Radio Co-Host: Some hard-core hos.
DON IMUS: That’s some nappy-headed hos there, I’m going to tell you that now.
I was watching The Newshour with Jim Lehrer on Tuesday where I learned a few things in the past about Don Imus
REVEREND JESSE JACKSON, Civil Rights Activist:
They’ve made these kind of racist statements about Maya Angelou. They’ve made them referring to Venus and Serena Williams as the animals, they should be in “National Geographic.”
JEFFREY BROWN: In another often quoted incident, Imus is reported to have said of the NewsHour’s Gwen Ifill, when she worked at the New York Times in the 1990s, “Isn’t the Times wonderful? It lets the cleaning lady cover the White House.”
Imus today denied ever saying that.
Whatever, he did say “Nappy Headed Ho’s” though.
Funny thing that the studio where Imus tapes his show for MSNBC is in Secaucus. NJ which is about 9.7 mi (about 18 mins) from Rutgers University.
Nobody isnt saying too much about his co-host who introduced the “hos” when he said “hardcore hos”
I wonder if these dudes would have said that a little closer to Newark, like on Market Street….lol
