] Chairman Sumner Redstone said he expects Les Moonves, his lieutenant at CBS, to do the right thing and fire Imus for his comments about the Rutgers University women’s basketball team.
Ben Ferguson, a radio talk show host, said another company will pick up Imus’ show and syndicate it if CBS drops him simply because there’s money to be made.
“I am not, by any means, defending what Don Imus said,” Ferguson told CNBC. “What he said was horrible, disgusting, disgraceful – I could go on and on.

Six months from now, he’ll still be on the radio.”
