The Root: Although I didn’t think it was possible, the latest Don Imus controversy is almost as ridiculous as the first one. Imus recently made an off-hand remark on his radio show about Adam “Pacman” Jones’ string of arrests, noting that “Pacman” was black. “There you go,” he said. “Now we know.” Some people chose to infer that Imus meant that Jones’ blackness lay at the heart of some inherent criminal proclivity. Suddenly people are up in arms, ready to gather a posse, fire the torches and go after Imus. Again.

Add to that the FCC’s latest move – the one where they fine ABC for a five year old NYPD Blue show for showing a naked ass cheek – along with the fact that they’ve yet to post guidelines of what is (and what is not) offensive and… well.

I miss Howard on terrestrial radio.
