Imus fired, but that's just the beginning...

So Imus has been fired. Good! Fantastic!

But I do hope that's not where it ends I hope that CBS and others like Sharpton, Jackson, all the women groups and more importantly us, the public ,will be more motivated to hold public officials, media personalities and our artistes accountable for the words they utter and their lyrics.

Freedom of expression and free speech comes with great responsibility if it is be uttered publicly on airwaves that WE all pay for and support and I don't believe that we jeapordize our civil liberties when we ask others to be respecful and mindful of the damage their words can cause to our communities.

I as a black woman made a decision some years ago not buy or support artistes that maliciously demean others and that includes black artistes, I don't discriminate and if others follow my example I am sure that our society can continue to evolve for the better. There is no such thing as too much political correctness i even take issue with that term(political correctness) there is right and there is wrong!

If we choose to strive to always do the right thing by each other even in the fields of 'entertainment' like Imus is supposedly in the US and by extension the rest of the world will become a more tolerant and a better place for ALL OF US to live in.
