Sometimes I Pretend to Read the Economist When I'm Actually Reading the New Yorker

Don Imus actually considers himself a journalist? As Wolcott says:

He just shuffles the usual insults around (everyone he dislikes is some combination of fat/lying/weasel/pig), as the hosts hoot it up as if he were Mark Twain reincarnated.

At least both Mark Twain and Don Imus publicly use the 'n word.'
