Imus Returns to Radio: "I Haven't Changed"

Shock jock Don Imus returned to the radio airwaves Monday morning, with new sidekick Karith Foster — an African-American comedienne — at his side. "I thought it was an opportunity to diversify the cast," he explains.It was a smart if calculated move to smooth things over in light of the incident that got him booted seven months ago. In a sitdown with Barbara Walters airing Thursday night, Imus says of his face-to-face with the Rutgers women's hoops team, "They were hurt. They told me how they felt and I got the message. I [will] never... do anything that will make them regret that they forgave me."That said, Imus hasn't pulled a complete 180 — far from it. Dick Cheney is "a war criminal" and "Hillary Clinton is still Satan" as far as he's concerned. "I haven't changed."What's your take? Should Imus be given a second chance?

Don Imus Returns to Radio on Dec. 3

Disgraced shock jock Don Imus is getting another chance. Citadel Broadcasting has announced that Imus will return to the airwaves over its New York flagship WABC starting Dec. 3. Imus has been off the air since April after he made racist and sexist remarks about the Rutgers University women’s basketball team. Imus apologized for the remarks, but was fired by CBS Radio and by cable network MSNBC, which simulcast his program. Imus, who will be reunited with newsreader and longtime partner Charles McCord, will take over the morning-drive shift from current hosts Curtis Sliwa and Ron Kuby. There's been no word on whether the new show will have a TV simulcast. But TV advertisers are much more sensitive than those for AM radio, so it’s expected to be a tougher sell. —Reporting by Stephen Battaglio
