from a blog called Reality Bites Back

SID TOO VICIOUS EVEN FOR IMUS OR HIS MANY BOSSES
The usually reliable New York Radio Message Board is reporting that Sid Rosenberg has been banished for good from "Imus in the Morning" after making a crack about Kylie Minogue's breast cancer that stepped over the line, even by that show's low standards.
No word yet whether it was the I-Man who showed the Sidster the wrong end of one of his cowboy boots, or whether the suits at WFAN, or MSNBC, which simulcasts Imus, were tired of rolling their eyes and making excuses for his malicious malingering at the mike.
Rosenberg will still be co-hosting his regular midday sports talkfest on the FAN, though he reportedly makes most of his radio dough from the Imus gig. All of a sudden tumors aren't so funny anymore, right Sid?

The crew was discussing the report that singer Kylie Minogue has breast cancer and someone commented that she's attractive. Sid said, "She won't look so pretty when she's bald with one titty."

I saw that Imus show live that day when Sid made that joke with Tim Daly & Michael Imperioli being interviewed and the look on their face was a bit un nerving. That's when I found out about her cancer and posted it here on the site.

They tell worse jokes all the time, seems to me they were looking for an excuse. I have heard a couple hours of the show since he got canned and it lacks energy.

LakersFan, Imus runs a 'Dude Ranch' for children with cancer. Hasn't he battled cancer too? Either way, that had to sit really badly with Imus. tulsa

Long time Imus listener/watcher. It's hard to know what is acceptable and unacceptable on the show sometimes. I'm shocked Bernard hasn't gotten in hot water for some of the things he says. Sid was okay. I think--and I guess I hope--that he comes back.

I guess Bernard whippin Sid in that over-hyped boxing match they had a while back didn't straighten his act out any.:sad3:
