  • Sports Broadcaster Warner Wolf Sues Don Imus for Age Discrimination
    Sports Broadcaster Warner Wolf Sues Don Imus for Age Discrimination hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/sports-broadcaster-warner-wolf-sues-don-imus-age-discrimination-1085119 Two broadcasting legends are squaring off in New York Supreme Court. On Thursday, Warner Wolf filed a discrimination lawsuit against Don Imus. Wolf, an 80-year-old sports broadcaster who became in famous in New York for his catchphrase "Let's go to the videotape," alleges that Imus routinely made inappropriate comments about his age. "Indeed, despite Mr. Wolf’s years of loyal service and unparalleled broadcasting caliber, Defendants’ discriminatory conduct towards Plaintiff came to a head on October 31, 2016, when Defendants unlawfully terminated Mr. Wolf’s employment based upon his age, replacing him with a sportscaster decades his junior," states the complaint. "Adding insult to injury, after terminating Plaintiff’s employment, Defendants and non-party Cumulus Media, Inc. refused to honor a severance clause in Plaintiff’s employment agreement that provided for 26 weeks of severance pay – amounting to $97,500.00 – in the event of Plaintiff’s termination." Imus spent decades himself in broadcasting — both on radio and on television. Along with Howard Stern, Imus helped define morning shock jock radio, but his career invited controversy at certain points due to insensitive remarks. Most famously, he was fired in 2007 from CBS over sexist and racist comments about the Rutgers women's basketball team. In January, Imus announced his imminent retirement. Wolf began providing services for Imus in the Morning in 1996, according to the complaint (read here), and he would later follow Imus' return to the air on WABC following the scandalous comments about Rutgers female athletes.

  • Warner Wolf Says Firing by Don Imus Was Age-Based
    Warner Wolf Says Firing By Don Imus Was Age-Based law360.com/articles/1013013/warner-wolf-says-firing-by-don-imus-was-age-based By Vin Gurrieri Law360 (February 15, 2018, 5:20 PM EST) -- A battle of legendary New York broadcasters broke out Thursday when sportscaster Warner Wolf accused longtime radio personality Don Imus of illegally firing him from the “Imus in the Morning” radio show because he was too old. Warner Wolf alleged in his New York state court suit that Don Imus, shown in 2015, fired him in late 2016 because of his age and replaced him with a decades-younger sports radio personality. (AP) Wolf, 80, alleged in his New York state court suit that Imus, 77, fired him in late 2016 from his job as sports anchor for the morning radio program because of his age and replaced him with Sid Rosenberg, a decades-younger sports radio personality who has a history of controversial on-air remarks.The suit comes as Imus' show itself is set to end March 29, according to media reports. Besides the firing, which Wolf claims violated New York’s city and state anti-discrimination law, the veteran sportscaster claims he was stiffed on nearly $100,000 in severance pay that was due to him under an employment contract he had with Cumulus Media Inc. The company, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy late last year, owns WABC, the station that airs Imus’ show. “It is hard to imagine a more iconic sportscaster than Warner Wolf and it is shameful that despite his continuing abilities at providing insight into the world of sports, he was terminated because of his age and not even provided the severance for which he was contractually entitled,” Douglas Wigdor of Wigdor LLP, who represents Wolf in the case said in a statement.

  • Warner Wolf Suing Don Imus for Age Discrimination
    Warner Wolf suing Don Imus for age discrimination nypost.com/2018/02/15/warner-wolf-suing-don-imus-for-age-discrimination/ By Andrew Marchand For a retirement present, one New York broadcast legend has filed a lawsuit against another. Warner Wolf is taking Don Imus and three others to the New York State Supreme Court, alleging Wolf was let go from WABC’s “Imus in the Morning” show at the end of 2016 because of age discrimination and is owed severance, as well as damages for “severe mental anguish, emotional distress, humiliation,” among other maladies. Imus is scheduled to retire from his show at the end of March. He regularly makes fun of everything and everybody. In the suit, Imus is the first one named as a defendant, along with WABC GM Chad Lopez, Cumulus Sr. VP Mike McVay and WABC program director Craig Schwalb. The claim was filed late Thursday morning, and a copy was obtained by The Post. Wolf’s lawyer, Douglas H. Wigdor writes, “Imus routinely made inappropriate comments about the Plaintiff’s age, including stating that it was ‘time to put [Mr. Wolf] out to pasture’ and ‘shoot him with an elephant dart gun.’” In 2016, the suit says that Imus replaced Wolf, then 78, because of his age and hired Sid Rosenberg, who was 30 years younger. Wolf claims that Cumulus refused to honor severance for 26 weeks of pay, amounting to $97,500. There seems to be a disagreement between the two parties if a deal had been officially consummated. Both Imus and Wolf have had legendary broadcast careers.

  • Howard Stern Is Most Popular Talk Radio Personality with Web Users for 6Th Straight Year
    Howard Stern is Most Popular Talk Radio Personality With Web Users for 6th Straight Year The SIRIUS Satellite Radio star tops sixth annual list of most-searched talk radio hosts NEW YORK, Oct 12, 2006 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ -- SIRIUS Satellite Radio (Nasdaq: SIRI) personality Howard Stern has once again topped the annual list of the most-searched talk radio personalities. The 2006 list marks the sixth consecutive year that Stern has been the No. 1 most-searched talk radio personality with web users. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/19991118/NYTH125 ) The annual list is based on The LYCOS 50, an authoritative weekly list of the most popular people, places and things web users search for every day. Stern generated 232 percent more online interest than Adam Corolla, who is ranked No. 2 on this year's list. In January 2006, Stern left his long and dominating reign in terrestrial radio to broadcast exclusively on SIRIUS. Web users have continued to express their interest in the "king of all media" by searching more for him on the web than for any other talk radio personality, including Rush Limbaugh, Don Imus, Oprah Winfrey, Sean Hannity, Tom Joyner, among others. In addition, according to Lycos, search activity for SIRIUS Satellite Radio increased 1,300 percent in 2005 and another 128 percent in 2006, due in part to Stern. For more information about Howard Stern's daily SIRIUS radio show and the two SIRIUS channels he oversees, visit www.sirius.com. About SIRIUS SIRIUS, "The Best Radio on Radio," delivers more than 130 channels of the best programming in all of radio.
