Christian leaders weigh in on Imus

WASHINGTON, D.C. (W.) April 11, 2007 -- MSNBC and CBS Radio have suspended cranky radio show Don Imus for two weeks for derogatory, racist comments he made about members of the Rutgers University women's basketball team.

Imus has since apologized for the comments.

Bishop T.D. Jakes of The Potter's House in Dallas reportedly called for Imus' ouster.

Day Gardner, president of the National Black Pro-Life Union, said he also was angry "that Imus actually thought this racial slur could be shrugged off as a joke."
