Children’s Health Defense joins parents of vaccine-injured children and advocates for health freedom in remembering the life of Don Imus, a media maverick in taking on uncomfortable topics that most in the mainstream press avoid or shut down altogether. His commitment to airing all sides of controversial issues became apparent to the autism community in 2005 and 2006 as the Combating Autism Act (CAA) was being discussed in Congress. The Act, which was ultimately signed into law by George W. Bush in December of 2006, created unprecedented friction among parents of vaccine-injured children and members of Congress; parents insisted that part of the bill’s billion-dollar funding be directed towards environmental causes of autism including vaccines, while most U.S. Senators and Representatives tried to sweep any such connections under the rug.

Don Imus Leaves a Trail of Way More Than Dust
By Michael Riedel - The one and only time I had a twinge of nerves before appearing on television was when I made my debut in 2011 on “Imus in the Morning” on the Fox Business Channel. I’d been listening to Don Imus, who died Friday at 79, since the 1990s as an antidote the serious (bordering on the pompous) hosts on National Public Radio. I always thought it would be fun to join Imus and his gang — news anchor Charles McCord, producer Bernard McGuirk, comedian Rob Bartlett — in the studio, flinging insults back and forth at one another. And now I had my chance. I was invited on to discuss to discuss “Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark,” the catastrophic Broadway musical that injured cast members daily.

Paul Begala DKG talked about a speech her husband wrote 50 years ago about what was happening in inner cities - blacks were crippled by hatred, doors of opportunity stunted by the family, community, poverty, and a lack of education – a lot of which still exists.
The Hollywood and Vine panel weighed in on why Finding Neverland didn’t get a single Tony nomination. Riedel said it’s because the show is terrible, Imogen said it’s magical and audiences love it, and Dagen said she doesn’t care, she’ll still see it!
Tony and Warner argued over whether there were surprises in last night’s NFL drafts. Gunz said he’s just glad Winston went first, pissing off Nat who said these teams will take any player regardless of their reputations proving they just want to win.
Goldstein said he grew up singing doo-wop in the projects of the Bronx. He was a fanatic for Rock and Roll and when he got out of journalism school he started writing about Rock and Roll, met the Rolling Stones, and became an influential rock critic.
