Here's an interesting little thing I heard about last week that I thought would gather considerable media attention, but didn't.  I'm hoping to fan the flames a little. 

Al Roker, weatherman-turned-celebrity, was quite vocal about the whole Don Imus thing. 
That said, it is time for him to go.

I, for one, am really tired of the diatribes, the "humor" at others' expense, the cruelty that passes for "funny".

Don Imus should do the right thing and resign.
Some people say it was Roker's comments that led to Imus' eventual firing (he originally had a mere 2-week suspension).  Whether or not that was a good thing, it doesn't really matter.  People have opinions.  People say things.  People misunderstand things.  People apologize.  Apologies are like band-aids on knife wounds.  These things won't change, no matter who gets fired and how much censorship exists. 

About a week ago, Roker made the following comments on the Today Show: 
Remember that controversial Olympic logo for the 2012 Olympics in London?  Some folks have complained that the campaign actually sent them into epileptic seizures.  Well, we asked you to weigh in on our Web site in an informal poll; those of you who could get up off the floor after shaking around were able to actually log in.
In other words, he made an attempt at "humor at others' expense" in the form of "cruelty that passes for funny".  Al Roker beautifully displayed a double standard.  He later apologized for it, claiming, "We understand and know that this is a serious affliction and would never joke about that."  Don Imus said he was sorry too, but he still lost his job.  Al Roker should eat his words and resign.  It's the only "right thing" to do. #entertainment
