Don Imus and Rural Media Group have agreed to a five-year contract that will make "Imus in the Morning" available on Rural Media Group's RFD-TV and RFD-HD.

"Imus in the Morning" for radio will be broadcast on the radio from 5-9 a.m. by Citadel Talk WABC/New York and will be syndicated across the country by the ABC Radio Network.

This has nothing to do with Imus, just FYI...

Imus or Perrault...it's really a wash, isn't it? Both are arrogant blowhards whose level of self-importance is nowhere near reality, and both host third-rate talk shows that are as relevant as the neighbor cat's last trip to the sandbox.

Count me out...

After the flap that put Imus out of his last job, should Omahans be proud or ashamed that an Omaha-based company is giving him a new job???

Glad Imus is back! I think he got a raw deal. He has plenty of followers and I can say that Omaha should be proud to have a company that has brought the I-man back.

If anybody knows about Hoe's it's a network geared toward the farming community and Imus..

Imus is great. Glad he's back on the air. He received a raw deal in this poster's opinion.
