Imus angers Sharpton with latest race comment
NEW YORK (AP) - Don Imus has once again injected race into his radio show.
During an on-air conversation Monday about the arrests of suspended Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones, Imus asked, "What color is he?"
Told by sports announcer Warner Wolf that Jones is "African-American," Imus responded: "There you go. Now we know."
Civil rights leader Al Sharpton issued a statement calling the exchange disturbing "because it plays into stereotypes." He says his National Action Network was still deciding how to respond.
Imus was fired from his previous show last year after he made a racially charged comment about the Rutgers women's basketball team.
Representatives for Imus and WABC Radio haven't returned calls.
First off, you would think that Imus would have learned his lesson the first time.
More importantly though, exactly what is it that isn't true about his statement? When is the last time you heard of a non-black NFL player being arrested for shooting up a strip club?
Sharpton is always eager to jump on the race issue, I wish he and the other "leaders" of the black community would spend their energy realizing that the current black culture encourages this kind of behavior. Maybe if they looked in the mirror a bit more instead of always pointing the race finger they might make things better for themselves.
