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.
Republican Congressman Peter King, the ranking member of the Homeland Security Committee, said the attempted Christmas Day bombing of Northwest Airlines Flight 253 as it approached Detroit was the result of "serious mistakes made from beginning to end."
A sleep-deprived Bo Dietl all but slurred his way through this morning's appearance with Imus, first detailing his recent medical woes. "My whole neck has arthritis, I've got a torn rotary cup, and arthritis in my shoulder," said Bo. "I can't sleep, and I don't want to take all those freakin' drugs they give you."
Bo Dietl In an effort to start the new year off right, Imus kindly suggested his guest, CBS News’s Jeff Greenfield, read the forthcoming book Game Change, by Mark Halperin and John Heilemann, which he said, "reads like a 350-page Page Six item" about the 2008 Presidential campaign.
Congressman Eric Cantor is serving his fifth term in the House of Representatives, recently became the minority whip, and holds an important seat on the House Weighs and Means Committee. Which is all very impressive, but means just one thing to Imus: "This is the guy to get my Vicodin from!"
Our very fine Fox Business Network Reporter Dagen McDowell had suggested that Bob Schieffer's five favorite songs — all honky-tonk country tunes — were an attempt to suck up to the I-Man. Luckily, the host of CBS's Face The Nation is a forgiving soul. "She doesn't know what we know, Imus," said the Texas-born and bred Schieffer.
