===Mr. John Donald Imus Jr. is a radio broadcaster, T.V talk show host, controversial comedian and a writer, or at least was all these various jobs. He on the radio broadcasting the show "Media Matters for America". Don Imus was a comedian on the radio, but sometimes went a little to far. He once went way to far and lost his job. He called the Womens Rutgers basketball team racial slurs. Mr.Imus was fired from his job and has been taken off the air. He is now sueing for his job back. He will probably not succeed because the way he stereotyped them was uncalled for and mean.Don Imus was hated by many people and it was like a media frenzy because everyone wanted to learn more on what happened. Don Imus has finally apologized and finally realized that some times people just don't deserve to be terrorized for your entertainment. Mr. Don is now suing for 120,000,000$ lost in what he could have made on his contract that MNBC cut off even though they weren't supposed to. Don thinks he has a real shot at coming back to the media business after all is done.=== ===Mr. John Donald Imus jr was born on July 23, 1940 in Riverside California.
