In April of 2007, Senator and presidential candidate Barack Obama said MSNBC should fire Don Imus for remarks about the Rutgers women's basketball team, saying they were "hateful" and "coarsening the culture" while making his daughters feel less than others.
Imus referred to the Rutgers women's basketball team as "nappy headed hos" on April 4, 2007 and was fired on April 12, the day after Obama called for his firing.MSNBC, though, has yet to discipline MSNBC host Martin Bashir for suggesting someone should urinate and defecate in Sarah Palin's mouth.
