I fail to see why he should be fired. He is a radio host, if you don't like what he says, TWIST THE DAMN DIAL AND DONT LISTEN TO HIM.

The radio show I listen to every morning would have the hosts fired too if anyone gave a f*** but they dont, so get over it!

But he is talking about something so sensitive as race and gender issues. If he was talking about Yankees vs Mets, and he said he likes Yankees and you like Mets, then yeah, change the channel. It's not appropriate at all to call girls Hos if you're an ancor or a TV personality. Imagine Bill O'Reily calling a guest on his show, let's say it was Condoleeza Rice, a nappy headed ho. He would get fired immediatly, and I don't see why Imus doesn't get fired just because the girls aren't Secretaries of State.
