If you hear something, say something

Imus has to go... not even worth the debate. There's probably a corporate mess at all the stations airing his show -- loss of advertising dollars, jobs, political fights, you name it. None of it surprises me.

The morning show anchor interviews one of the women on the Rutgers basketball team. Apparently she was tempted to just let the comment slide by. She was not going to raise her hand. The anchor is perplexed by this attitude. I am not. I know exactly where she is coming from: Him saying something doesn't make it so. Her saying something doesn't erase his racism. Maybe she's tired of raising her voice, withstanding comments, striving harder than everyone else so that noone can question her state of perfectionism.

But lucky for her, the man had a microphone in his hand. It was on air, but it went on tape. Everyone heard him. Now everyone needs to say something.
