moderating on the board

I think if you are touchy about every little thing that is on this board then this board is not for you. Leon has always handled everything in the right manner. What Imus said was hateful and nasty and he had no RIGHT to say it -- not when he's got an employer and has some responsibility to them (and presumably to the listening public). If he wanted to say it on the street corner that would have been ok. Not when he's working for a company and the company has sponsors and responsiblities to listners and viewers. My advice to those who get upset about some of the stuff they read here: go to a different thread. In defense of Hal, by the way, he said nothing inappropriate at all. Lighten up, Francis.
