How about his monolog!!! That was the most heart felt speech I've ever heard. I'd hope his distractors would also take it as genuine.

Agreed! I'm watching on rfdtv and there are the few expected glitches to work out but all in all he's allayed my concerns regarding whether his backbone would slip. Now I'm waiting for his detractors to chime in and hope they'll begin any diatribe by stating why they tuned him in to begin with.

What tired, worn out, mumbling, forced, non-funny, uncompelling radio. We waited 8 months for this? Pity the poor people of Citadel who are on the unemployment line today, paying for Imus salary, while the company stock is just over $2.00 a share. Something is wrong with radio. Something very very wrong.
Same old radio s***.

He sounded old and confused to me. Why do so many people like this program?? Chris Dodd kissing up to him was funny because if they asked Dodd to speak on the Rutgers issue he would have probably torn into Imus.
Oh well enjoy the hate filled talk Imus Fans.
ps:Yes there are now 2 Black people on the show and their resumes don't impress me at all.

Imus did a super job. He will end up being a BIG asset to WABC.
Nobody who disliked his show before will suddenly become a convert, but for the many who have listened to Imus over the years (and others who appeciate political talk with a dose of humor) will be glad to hear that he's returned in fine form.

As to the glitches, its to be expected. Early in 1997 MSNBC simply rolled the cameras for nearly all 180 minutes straight! Nothing like getting to watch PRO radio jocks and news people (not use to cameras) sitting around and scratching themselves during comm-breaks! But one thing DID become clear, RFD-TV is running their own delay and chopping anything that is slightly hot! During he MEA COPA, he had a small spot of dead are on TV. But I noticed it happened again when his new sidekick did that small standup routine. I turned up WABC.COM and heard the words "bad ass" her reference to NY people crossing the street. Fairly tame for modern radio but possibly not right for a network geared for rural, family values. See if it continues.

He said nothing much has changed while he was off. This thread shows he's right. Those who liked him before, still like him. Those who didn't like him before, still don't.
He got a long vacation. He got a lot of attention. And he probably made money off the deal. The Rev Al should be proud of what he did for the I-man.

He is a monolog. As in dead wood.
