Imus returned to TV this week

Just as
one broadcasting legend faces his slow downfall, this week also marked the triumphant return of another to the airwaves.
Don Imus, MSNBC's former morning show man who was ousted from his TV and radio time slots for
racially charged comments he made about the Rutgers' women's basketball team, returned to TV on Monday on the Fox Business Channel.
The morning shock jock wasted no time at his new home by getting back to his old tricks, lambasting everyone in the biz from
David Letterman to his new co-worker
Glenn Beck. And the move seems to be paying off since
Fox Business scored their biggest ratings hit since ... well, ever.
Do you think Imus should be back on the air?

If Vick can be back in the NFL, the Imus should be back on the air. As weird as it seems, there is no finality anymore.

I find it odd that he's relevant in any way anymore, nor did I even know there was a Fox Business Channel. Who cares, he sucks. I have no idea who has any interest in him.

I find Imus irrelevant and incoherent. That said, he's got every reason to be back on the air*.
*He's been back on radio for quite a while now. Evidently, he was on some obscure cable channel. Either way, i am not listening or watching.

That'd be RFD-TV, where he was on from December of '07 to the end of August this year, when he got the Fox deal.
So he wasn't off the air in either radio or television for more than 6-8 months, tops.
