Wow, that's a surprise.
I listened to him for years when he first came to NY.

I never listened to Stern, he was too crude, Imus was political.
He wasn't worth listening to for the last 4 years he was on.
He did a lot for kids with cancer on the ranch.

Radio shock jock Don Imus, one of the early pioneers of his genre, died Friday less than two years after retiring, according to a family statement given to NBC New York.

He was 79.

The controversial morning personality’s last day on the radio was March 29 of last year. He announced Jan. 22 that he was retiring, telling fans: “Turn out the lights ... the party's over."
