I won't defend Imus's comments, and I do think that a suspension and due penance is required. However, there are many others out there who routinely utter similarly offensive language and who have not even been disciplined. Sure, there are the rappers; that is a given. But there are a slew of right wingnut air personalities who slander someone on almost every show who are still with us. Check out Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Glen Beck, Ann Coulter, and others. Femi-nazis, indeed!

Why aren't they similarly dragged through the mud and left on the road for the next car to run over? Ann Coulter recently offended John Edwards, homosexuals, and those of us with sensibilities with her recent comment. My concern is that punishments are unevenly handed out.
