====Don Imus==== [[Don Imus]]' radio show ''[[Imus in the Morning]]'' was simulcast on MSNBC for over ten years. In 2007, he described members of the [[Rutgers Scarlet Knights women's basketball|Rutgers University women's basketball team]] as "some nappy-headed hoes." The remark was met with outrage, and advertisers withdrew from the show, with MSNBC canceling the simulcast. Both Imus and NBC News apologized to the Rutgers Basketball team for the remarks.<ref>{{Cite news |date=April 11, 2007 |title=MSNBC drops simulcast of Don Imus show |work=[[Today (American TV program)|Today]] |url=http://www.today.com/id/17999196 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210114000456/https://www.today.com/id/wbna17999196 |archive-date=January 14, 2021}}</ref>
