Imus called women's basketball team "nappy-headed hos"

On the April 4 edition of MSNBC's Imus in the Morning, host Don Imus
referred to the Rutgers University women's basketball team, which is
comprised of eight African-American and two white players, as
"nappy-headed hos" immediately after the show's executive producer,
Bernard McGuirk, called the team "hard-core hos." Later, former Imus
sports announcer Sid Rosenberg, who was filling in for sportscaster
Chris Carlin, said: "The more I look at Rutgers, they look exactly like
the [National Basketball Association's] Toronto Raptors."

McGuirk referred to the NCAA women's basketball championship game
between Rutgers and Tennessee as a "Spike Lee thing," adding, "The
Jigaboos vs. The Wannabees -- that movie that he had." McGuirk was
presumably referring to Lee's 1988 film, School Daze (Sony Pictures),
though co-host Charles McCord misidentified it as "Do the Right Thing"
(Criterion, June 1989).

But any criticism of Condi Rice or Clarence Thomas
is "liberal racism". Go figure..................

Get your hair cut.

Then at least you won't be "nappy-headed."
 
In all fairness, it wasn't really smart for Imus to make this statement
considering Rutgers is a somewhat "local" university in relation to where he
broadcasts from.

It's not telling the truth that can make an idiot of oneself, but to
say the truth. It's better sometimes to keep our mouth shut.

Racism and sexism "wasn't really smart"? Awfully white of you to say so.

I dunno...

Probably NOT a nappy-headed ho.
 
What do you mean?

I mean claiming that "Imus wasn't really smart" is an
understatement.
