I keep reading all the beautiful condolences that people are writing about how much a part of their lives were effected by listening to him over the years.

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, Divisive Radio Shock Jock Pioneer, Dead at 79 - Imus in the Morning host earned legions of fans with boundary-pushing humor, though multiple accusations of racism and sexism followed him throughout his career By Kory Grow RollingStone
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.
Seriously, the I-Man’s hair looked great this morning, according to Deirdre Imus and Lis Wiehl. Hoping not to offend poor little Connell, Deirdre noted that he also looked great, but was instructed by her husband, "Let’s not make it cougar time with Connell."
Pete Hamill, the venerable New York City journalist, has penned 20 books, the latest of which is a novel entitled "Tabloid City." Though he stopped by to chat with Imus on the occasion of its release two weeks ago, they spent most of that time talking about Osama Bin Laden’s recent death.
Pete Hamill After nearly two full days of practicing, Imus was still inept at pronouncing John Leguizamo’s last name, despite numerous valiant attempts. It turns out Leguizamo is equally unskilled in that endeavor after almost 47 years.
John Leguizamo It was difficult to tell whether Juan Williams, a Fox News political analyst, was happy or sad that his son graduated from Haverford College yesterday. "I graduated from there 35 years ago," he told Imus. "It’s amazing to me how long I’ve been out of college. It makes you stop and think about how quickly time’s passed."
Juan Williams Before today, Matt Taibbi would have been pretty low on the list of people who might fall for Imus’s claim that the scar on his forehead was the result of a knife fight, and not a procedure to remove a Squamous-cell carcinoma. Let’s hope Taibbi was less naïve while reporting on his latest article for Rolling Stone, entitled "The People vs. Goldman Sachs."
