A lawyer for Don Imus said that the former radio host's bosses could have edited the on-air comments that got him fired -- and that the fact that they didn't meant they saw his remarks as routine for his show. Attorney Martin Garbus said that CBS Radio and MSNBC had delay buttons but didn't use them when Imus made racist and sexist comments about the Rutgers women's basketball team last month, citing a clause in Imus' contract acknowledging that Imus' show was "irreverent" and "controversial."

Attorney Martin Garbus told ABC-TV’s “Good Morning America” that CBS Radio and MSNBC had delay buttons but didn’t use them when Imus made racist and sexist comments about the Rutgers women’s basketball team last month.
