Much ado...

So, I'm watching the news last night, and find out that there was apparently a big ruckus in NY over a comment some popular radio personality made about the Rutgers University Women's Basketball Team. Perhaps you've heard about this story...

Anyway, seems this guy, Imus, made a disparaging remark live on air and was subsequently suspended from work for 2 weeks. He has apologized and agrees he crossed the line with his comments. The news broadcast then went on to show excerpts from a press conference where the women of the Rutgers team, all apparently aspiring doctors, musicians and lawyers and got a chance to respond to the belittling remarks..

So, what exactly did he say that caused such a furor you ask? Well, I believe "nappy-headed ho's" were his words.

One woman's succint rebuttal: "Well, I would just like to ACKS him, if he met me, does he think I'm still a ho?"

Hmmm... jury's still out on that one...
