I,personally, have little doubt Imus WAS sorry and that his apologies were genuine....he strikes me as a guy who is not overtly racist. But he also seems to me like a guy who is likely to make a similar faux pas again. He leads with his mouth and pops off with smart-alec remarks without thinking because he is trying to affect edgy cuteness.

   I do wish his producer, who sit in the romm and who FED him the line that started this mess had been mentioned more. I guess HE lost his job, too...but he has as much blame as Imus in the whole thing.
