Report: Imus Set to Sign with Fox Business News


Syndicated Don Imus could be making the move to Fox Business News, reports AllYourTV.com. Following his ordeal with the Rutgers University women's basketball team in April, 2007, in which he made his now infamous "nappy-headed hos" comments, a simulcast of his show has aired on rural-oriented RFD-TV. Now several sources claim Imus is close to a deal with Fox Business Network, as early as September 1.

AllYourTV.com says this could be a boost for the "ratings-challenged" Fox Business Network. The business channel currently airs the three-hour live program "Money In The Morning" starring Jenna Lee and Connell McShane in the early morning time slot.
