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.
On his son Lincoln's fourth birthday, Big Kenny, formerly of the country duo Big & Rich, came by the studio to play some tunes for the I-Man, and to share his new philosophy on life. Oh, and to promote his forthcoming album, The Quiet Times of a Rock and Roll Farm Boy.
Big Kenny Matt Taibbi stopped by today to chat with Imus about over-commercialization in sports. But why waste an opportunity to crack jokes on Andre Agassi's weave, demean the city of Cleveland, and explain where Brett Favre should go? Taibbi's most recent article for Men's Journal magazine focused on what he called a "phenomenon" in sports advertising.
Matt Taibbi Bo Dietl had big plans for his appearance with Imus today. First, he'd talk about the hotly contested race for Governor in New Jersey, and then he'd touch on the issue of national security, followed by an astute analysis of the over-medicating of adults and children. It was an ambitious agenda, and one Imus had no intention of following.
Bo Dietl Charles Payne is a Fox Business Network contributor, the CEO and principal analyst of Wall Street Strategies, and the author of Be Smart, Act Fast, Get Rich. So it was surprising to learn that he looks to the futures each day as an indicator of where the world stands economically.
Charles Payne A man with a sense of humor as big as his waistline, Chris Christie, the Republican Gubernatorial Candidate in New Jersey, promised Imus one thing today. "I'm going to be a big, fat winner," said Christie, formerly a U.S. Attorney in New Jersey. He told Imus, "I'm pretty fat, Don," and joked (we hope) that he weighs 550 lbs.
