So I don’t listen to Don Imus or Howard Stern, or really any of the AM Shock Jocks (out side of Neal Boortz but I really couldn’t help but hear about the “controversy” that has been born out of the things he said on his show last week or so about a women’s basketball team. In reality, what he said isn’t anything that isn’t heard coming out of the mouth of any young person (white or black) or rapper these days anyways. The main difference in what Imus said and what a rapper says is that Imus is white.

There has been a double standard for a while in our culture these days that is born out of the political correctness movement that makes it ok to say certain things if you’re a certain race or creed, but if you’re not then watch out! The problem that exists is that its ok to talk about others (even friends) in a way like that anyways. I was pointed to a post by Earl Ofari Hutchinson (yes, its on huffingtonpost, a decidedly liberal site) where he calls out the same things that if its not ok for Imus to talk that way, then it shouldn’t be ok for anyone to talk that way. You should Read it!

Net neutrality is something that will affect every single american. There’s a movement out there to regulate the internet and to give that power to a few larger players in the telcom industry. Now, all of us can help the fight by going to <a href=”http://savetheinternet.org” target=_new>Save the internet</a> and signing the petition as well as writing our congressmen and senators in this battle. If you want more information, check out the site, or listen to Jon Stewart and John Hodgman explain:
