Don Imus is taking the phrase “bitch better have my money” to a new level.
The veteran shock jock, who was fired last month by CBS is now allegedly preparing to sue the company, to the tune of $40 million. Imus has enlisted free speech attorney Martin Garbus, whose past list of clients include Hip Hop pioneers Public Enemy and Spike Lee. "We expect to file a complaint by the end of next week alleging breach of contract” Garbus stated. "The contract Imus originally signed with CBS shows that the company knew and agreed that the 66-year-old jocks content could, and would be unique, extraordinary, irreverent, intellectual, topical, controversial." In the eyes of CBS, “controversy” and “racial” aren’t synonymous. After Imus unloaded the now infamous “nappy headed hoe” comment on the women’s basketball team at Rutgers University, controversy mounted as sponsors withdrew financial support from the top rated, Imus in the Morning show. Imus was terminated by both CBS and MSNBC. CBS stands behind their decision to fire Imus and vows to fight the suit, should it ever make it to court. "We terminated Mr. Imus for cause," CBS said in a statement. "Based on the comments in question and relevant contract terms, we believe that the termination was appropriate and CBS would expect to prevail in any attempt by Mr. Imus to recover money for his actions." Garbus plans to file papers with the state Supreme Court in Manhattan . Source:HipHopdx.com |

I don't think is too much about money, i mean they violated his rights, he under a legal contract,plus is his right and freedom of speech,i don't get why people are so ignorant,and they let others controll what you say and how you feel,ohh because you in school or in a federal building you should watch what you say,if you not aware of it,you being controlled in another level,that's why 75% of the people in this country will end up being slaves,because they take all the sh!t they big politician or the president tell thems,i mean we are the people we pay for the government with our taxes and blood money, and yet we let someone else dictate what we gotta do,and if we refuse,then they lable you as an outcast outlaw terrorist or the worst,and they using the media to condition you into slowy desarm yourself,they give a couple of choices that are bad,then they minimize the number of choices,until eventually you only got one choice,slowly controlling you into not rejecting that choice and they give a number of consequences or bullsh!t benefits and then they give you that only choice and when you take it,they take full control of you,that's pure psychology, and they have been using it for decades,they used on our parents,us and they going to use it on our childrens,like "school" which now days is nothing but infant jail, where you need i.ds and you got metal detectors and camaras even inside the classroom,and they keep record of what you do,and when you don't take sh!t from the security guards or the teacher or principle they put it in your school record,and am not saying people should disrespect other people,but i don't wnat people to be controlled into taking all the sh!t, i mean all men were created equal,why all of the sudden there's a class pyramid and the minority is on the bottom,and stays in the bottom only a few make it one step up,but rarely one makes up to the top,while the rich are always on the top and they never reach the bottom,and alot of them don't help the people in the bottom moving up,instead they expoilt us,and keep us trying,but with no success or hope.but the world has already been set up thousands of years to have people controlled,and have slaves,and followers.and they find ways to keep people don't using fear,or disillusion.atleast here in america there was freedom of speech but slowly they trying to control us into keeping sh!t inside.and if you say something you will have your consequences either you will lose your job or you will be arrested.just like the scientist in the past getting killed because of what they belived.history repeats itself.and when they take our rights we will be naked exposed to the New World Order that will shatter you freedom in pieces.now you have some time to decide weather you want stay sitting down wondering who's going to be the winner in america idol or you can wake the hell up and read your constitution or research about the New World Order and find a way to wake up others. or you can go to google and research.god knows how long will it takes till they take me and the other to a concentration camp.because we spreading the truth.

Imus saying that could have been the best career move ever. Yea he got fired but now everyone knows who he is and will get more attention than he ever did before. I bet he does get some money too out of this and could probably make a book or some shit out of it like everyone else does. Who really gives a fuck too this happened like a month ago

paranoid,because am not sleeping,thinking there's an american dream,and i belive cash rules everything around you,cream get the money.where do you think money came from,who do you think got the rights for money,not you,no your parents,not me,not this country,but the european families ties bankers like rothchild and rockerfeller.but ofcourse,they have you chasing and illusion,because paper money in reality has no value,even lincoln knew that if people knew who owned this country,they would certainly not be happy smiling.and if you don't belive it look at your dollar bill there's a bunch of codes,number and words that are written in latin...hold up latin??? i thought this was america it's founder father spoke english,why did they use latin??i let you find that one out.Beside the globalist bankers owning the economy of this country,they also run the mass media,that little t.v you watch that radio you be bumping all hard full of subliminals and comercials,and those movies you be dying to see,those are controlled by the same type of people, why do you think,they don't let you reason yourself,and you always following the hype,and you end up doing sh!t you don't even know sh!t about,and i aint saying i know it all or am better than you,am just awake,and when is say you,am not amming directly to you "msn" i mean "msh", you mention "concentration camps" in your reply when i didn't even mentioned that in this thread,which means you either trying to wake up reading the truth,or you know or heard the truth,but you still sleeping,by saying that am paranoid,i must admit that am stupid,for trying to get people to wake up,and am not even writting the whole truth,what i give people is a little pay-per-view clip,the truth is a whole horror flick if people keep snoring on the reality,that you don't own sh!t in this world but your sins,unless you let christ carry them for you by accepting him,other than that you not even able to control yourself,but must of ya are mindslaves anyways,captive to do what your master says,and you know that am right,when you don't feel good about yourself if you ain't lookng fresh,and when you gotta pay for tap water,like if some scientist created tap water,and put a copyright on it. folks check out the facts,go out there,if you wanna insult me, don't use simple words, use sentences,go out there and prove me wrong that there is no New World Order,that there is no concentration camps like guantanamo bay,that the people that rule and run the world aren't behind shawdows,using little puppets politicians and world learders to control everything from what you want,what you belive in,what you do,to even what you think,and if you want to wake up,you need to start thinking and start serching for the truth.and that's all for today class,i don't want ya to struggle reading the first sentence,and again there's websites like there's videos in google and youtube about the new world order if you can't read.peace yall |
