Yeah -- I caught that after I posted. But that crack aside, my point still 
stands: Imus would never slander Jews with the same frequency that he has 
blacks, Arabs, queers, etc. Plus, a lot of media folk dislike Kurtz, so 
yeah, that line was overlooked -- but it wouldn't be if it was part of a 
larger pattern.
