Past May we saw radio living
legend and <a href="/biography/don-imus">Cowboy</a> Don Imus, <a href="/biography/don-imus">one</a> of the most controversial yet popular man we
had been hearing on our radio for more than 4 decades , announced that his
radio show will not see daylight again on the Fox Business Network starting May
29th, 2015. He announced the exist in a satirical manner. He said "Ordinarily
when I leave these jobs, it's by police escort."

He was born during the time
of war, and now, he is still fighting in the sheepie world where individual
opinion and freedom of speech have lost meaning.

However, the exit from Fox
was not end for his radio show. Now, fans can hear his radio show on WABC
(770AM).

If you didn't know, Don
climbed his part of ladders in the radio industry by being "a total
callous schmunk", as put by <a href="/biography/neil-cavuto">Cavuto</a>, his longtime <a href="/biography/neil-cavuto">partner</a> from the network,
in the last show.

A radio personality known
for his satire kind of insult led humor and affront, Don Imus sharp tongue has
not only brought him success, but also various controversies and lawsuits.
Those who have listened to him know that he is more of a liberal than
conservative. However, he is generally perceived to be like Republican and
Democratic  politicians because of his
sharp tongue.

His show is popular because
he is able to, in simple words, drag people (no mater of their class, race,
gender or power status) into interesting situations by asking insulting
question in an honest way. We don't know how he manages to do that or what does
that mean. Phew!!

As of 2015, he is 75. At
such point of life, he likes spending as much as time with his family and not
only that, doing great-cause work to help children with cancer and other
groups.

Now moving on to his
physical configuration, he is a tall <a href="/biography/don-imus">man</a> with the height of 6 feet and 2
inches. An American national of white ethnicity, Don has a messy shoulder
length hairstyle (white and gray color). Since he is an old <a href="/biography/don-imus">man</a>, he has a wrinkly
face. However, when he was a young <a href="/biography/don-imus">man</a>, he was quite a dashing <a href="/biography/don-imus">man</a>.

Talking about hair, his show
"Inus in the morning" was actually suspended by MSNBC in 2007 because
he had made controversial comment demeaning Rutgers women basketball team
because of their tattoos and hair. However, the team only consisted of eight
percent <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_Americans">African Americans</a>.

He said:  "Yeh
dose r sum nappy headed ho's right durr let me tell ya dat!"

However,
he later apologized by issuing a statement. However, he initially dismissed the
sad incident emphasizing nappy headed ho is a term originated and highly used
in the black community. 
Talking
about his relationship status, he has been married twice till now. His current
wife is <a href="/biography/deirdre-imus">Deirdre Imus</a> (m.1994 - present), the <a href="/biography/deirdre-imus">founder</a> and president of the
Dierdre Imus Environment Health Center. Previously, he was married to Harriet
Showalter (m. 1969 – 1979). Alltogether, he has three children biologically,
two daughters (three grand children) from his first marriage, and a 1998 born
son from his current wife. Nevertheless, he also has two adopted stepdaughter
from his first marriage. 
Born on July 23, 1940, in
Riverside, California, US, Don Imus is basically known as the original shockjock
of one of the most popular radio program in the American History "Imus in
the Morning".

Although he is a
controversial <a href="/biography/don-imus">person</a>, he is also a source of inspiration for millions. He successfully
battled alcoholism and drug addiction in the past. He also faced his parents'
divorce in his adolescence. He tried to peruse music career as a rock and roll
musician at the age of 19 after dropping high school as a homeless soul. In his
20's, he took various jobs such as brakeman (because he lacked education and
skills) until he started his entertainment career as a disc jockey.

Interesting wiki, he joined
Marine Corps as a bugler at the age of 17 because of his mother strategy to
keep him out of jail. He was already arrested because of a school yard fight. Interestingly,
he was also elected as a class president in secondary school, but later
impeached.
