MSNBC Pulls Plug On Imus

MSNBC will no longer simulcast Imus In the Morning.

"This decision comes as a result of an ongoing review process, which initially included the announcement of a suspension. It also takes into account many conversations with our own employees," NBC News said in a statement.

"Once again, we apologize to the women of the Rutgers basketball team and to our viewers. We deeply regret the pain that this incident has caused."

CBS Radio is sticking with the two week suspension. General Motors has pulled ads from Imus's show.

The Rutgers women's basketball team publicly responded to Imus's comments. Cue video.

"I would like to express our team's great hurt, anger and disgust toward the words of Mr. Don Imus," said Rutgers playerEssence Carson. ""We are highly angered at his remarks but deeply saddened with the racial characterization they entailed."

Imus will meet with the Rutgers basketball team to apologize to them. The meating (I kid you not) will be at an undisclosed location. Judging by Imus's performance on The Today Show - this is a disaster in the making.
