[BC] Imus Comedy record & Today show

[Chuck Lakaytis]

I hardly ever listen to radio or watch television anymore.  It is just the 
lowest common denominator, pretty sad.

And I am a little touchy for two reasons.  The first black person I ever 
really knew and worked with has his name on the Vietnam Wall.

And my sister adopted a half black half Asian boy.  He had to fight his way 
through school.  And his adopted white brother was right alongside him, 
duking it out with kids that probably think Imus is cool.

One of her sons finally just gave up on life and is now deceased.  Care to 
guess which one.

My great great grandfather was an officer in the 62nd Regiment, U.S. 
Infantry (Colored) in the Civil War.  After the war he helped found Lincoln 
Institute which is today Lincoln University.

Captain Baxter would think less then nothing of Imus.

 But most important to me is who really profits by what has happened in our 
industry.

Put em on the air, make a video, who cares as long as it makes me money.

Right now I take a lot more pleasure out of helping my girlfriend train a 
German Shepard as a rescue dog then I do working in radio and television.
