What bothers me the most (other than the comment itself) is that there is more here than blatant racism. From what I heard on the news, the producer made a remark first regarding the ho's and Imus took it one step further and added the ''nappy headed''. What of the producer? Where are the women's advocates here? Gloria, where are you when we need you?

As Lixy said (((LIXY))), the Revs' jumped on this like, well white on rice, the moment 'nappy headed' was uttered. GET A LIFE! What about songs that refer to nigga? Shame on them for concentrating on the nappy part and ignoring the ho part! IMO, if this is an issue, it is an issue for ALL women. Notice, it is the men who are having an issue with the nappy part, the women are concentrating on the ho part. Why isn't there an outcry toward these fine African American men for that? Again, one part of the comment isn't any better (or worse) than the other. Fire the producer! Make him go on air and apologize to over half the nation!
