Just before 5 pm Thursday - cable tv is announcing that Imus was just fired from radio as well as the tv simulcast. I think that means he is now off the air.

Supposedly this will not be the end of it. Keith Olbermann (for one) was using the public airwaves (well, basic cable, does that count?) to call for the firing of a whole hit list of people who offend him, to go next.

I wish I were younger so I wouldn't remember how easily and creepily this mob justice stuff gets out of control.
