In other words, I believe this is more of a problem than simplifying it as "a bad joke and that's life."

This isn't about political correctness, nor.....who does it harm?

Obviously, its harming a great number of people, not the least of which should be, and is Don Imus.
Anna Nicole was a big story too. Dont confuse a "big" story with an important story. Imus is a guy who has taken shots and pissed off literally thousands of people. He is a big name. His name gives this story legs, period. That does not make it right. If jj graci had said the same thing on ATRAB would there be the same outrage? Of course not. And if this is not about political correctness then what is it about?
