Radio host Don Imus has announced on his show that
he has stage II prostate cancer. The
National Cancer Institute describes this as the stage at which "cancer is more advanced than in stage I, but has not spread outside the prostate." Imus last made national news with
unfortunate remarks about the Rutgers' women's basketball team in 2007 which led to his firing, an apology, and
rehiring, but is best known for decades of
obstreperous radio work and some
indelicate jokes he told in the presence of President Bill Clinton at the Radio/TV Correspondents Association Annual Dinner in 1996.
