Probably not a lot of people in Europe took an interest in what happened a few days ago to a radio talk show host in New York called Don Imus.
I did because I remember Imus from the early 1970s when I was living in New York and he was just a regular DJ on morning radio; what made his shows more entertaining than most were his comedy routines and his occasional phone calls (under some fake identity) to unsuspecting people, whom he would then proceed to entrap in the most bizarre conversations, testing their credulity by ever more outrageous assertions.
