Apparently Contessa bad mouthed Imus to the Page 6 Gossip colum in the NY Post. So he let her have it today. He said he was trying to be nice to her but that was the final straw. I never thought she fit in to the quick witted and fast paced Imus show. She is way to stiff and has no sense of humor.

Imus and his cohorts abused Contessa Brewer, just as they abuse so many women. Please join a growing boycott. MSNBC can offer us a better show than Imus in the Morning. Considering how the guests we love WANT to appear on Imus program for very individual reasons, it seems that almost anyone can do a better job that Don Imus. Please consider writing letters and joining a boycott of the program. Some regular guests to ask to refuse to appear as a guest until a better host is found are: Chris Matthews hardball@msnbc.com Dan Abrams abramsreport@msnbc.com NBC News correspondent Nightly@NBC.com (includes Brian Williams, Norah ODonnell David Gregory, and Andrea Mitchell) Please reference attention to each individual.

We can have a wonderful morning news magazine with interesting guests without the behaviors none of us would tolerate from our own children. Lets join together in hitting people who encourage Don Imus and his cohorts where it hurts in the egos, the ratings, and the pocketbooks!

Nice lookin' and curvy but average overall. Imus is total scum for what he did to her.

After considering what Ellis had to offer regarding pairing Tessa with Natalie Morales I've increased my rating of Tessa to 4 stars. I would enjoy both of them together and could overlook Tessa's deer in headlights look so long as she was at least passively aggressive and let Natalie take charge. In the morning I would buy them both breakfast if Tessa let Natalie do most of the talking.

Not quite Natalie Morales, but she's getting there. The difference between them really is that Natalie seems more comfortable and shows more personality, but I love watching those two together; I don't even need to hear a word they are saying.

Great newscaster; up there with Hoda Kotb. Sad, the Imus Show mistreated her; she should file a complaint.

not a favorite. often speaks before she thinks. too bad not too bad looking. needs more street education.

She's got charm and puts up with the Imus group. That's not easy. Why all the recent comments as of late?????? She's been off the show for a little bit.

Contessa is intelligent, professional, beautiful and a real lady, and does not deserve the low-life criticism of Don Imus and his group of jerks. Ignore them, Contessa. You have way more class than they could ever recognize.

I could not believe no one defended poor Contessa Brewer today on Imus as she was cruelly commented upon by all even Charles encouraged and enjoyed it. How dare they denigrate Contessa, who is beautiful and intelligent, because Imus is offended by the truth. How did she ever put up with the likes of working with a greasy nose picker, a baldheaded woman hater, a four-eyed news reader with more nervous tics than Sid ever had in rehab, and last but not least an aged, malnourished, misanthropic, malcontent himself. What credentials do they have to pass judgement on women? And I'm a big fan of the show and Imus.

Imus and his flunkies have gone too far this time. Just a bunch of old men with no class. This is sexual harassment. Deirdre Imus is so concerned about cleaning up toxins, she ought to start with her husband.

Opie and Anthony were talking about this today. Anthony performed a pristine IMUS impersonation. Calling Contessa a cVnt. Comercial radio blows anyway. She is a moron anyway. IMUS was right.

I liked Contessa Brewer. I enjoyed watching Imus but tried to watch this morning and just kept thinking about the ugly comments.

Contessa never fit in on the Imus show. That fancy college degree doesn't mean anything when it comes to playing with the big boys. Loosen up girlfriend!

Contessa Brewer doesn't bother me. She is just another talking head but she doesn't deserve to be treated the way she has been on Imus. Nothing has been mentioned yet on Imus this Monday mornign about what he said Friday. Maybe he got a warning.

She used to add class to the Imus show.Now we know she has no sense of humor.Imus was smart in getting rid of her.Once she learns how to read, MSNBC daytime is as high as she will go. Mentioning her with Natalie Morales is a JOKE

Why do old guys like Imus and O'Reilly have to try an ruin the careers of anyone out there that says anything negative against them. Contessa Brewer stated a fact that Imus is a cantankerous old fool who doesnt know how to relate to beautiful women. (His wife is far from beautiful). If he would have only commented on Contessa's quality of work, that could be understood, but to call her a slut and make jokes about her being fat is going to far.

I like the Imus show and watch or listen regularly. But, this is just a payback for Contessa standing up for herself on the show. Also, how can Imus pic on her looks then brag about his horse-faced wife.

cute girl. not one of my faves, but not bad.

Now an utterly repulsive, self-absorbed old creep, Imus prompted his aging stooges to sexually harass Contessa Brewer on-air for weeks. How much crudeness, sexual innuendo, and foul language does it take to finally get those over-the-hill adolescents kicked off the air? Not to worry; with their recent ratings no kick may be required.

She has NO street smarts and can not read and no sense of humor.and really not that attractive.all in all,IMUS was wise to dump her.he has been around too long to not know what will work .now with the page 6 remarks,she will get so much nasty press at the mercy of the IMUS gang.not sure if she can handle or wants that kind of recognition.she danced,and now must pay the fiddler...

what happend on the show today? i just heard I-Man's bad words about C Brewer. Can anyone tell me what happened before 8:00am EST?

When Imus leaves his AA meeting he's not headed for a Mensa affair.

Being flushed by Imus is a plus for Contessa's career. She is guaranteed fresh press because of the negative and personally abusive comments by that wrinkled, self-absorbed moron, Imus.

was she kicked out of kindergarden? In spite of looking fairly decent after a few hours in the makeup chair, her inability to pronounce simple words make her painful to listen to...thankfully, Imus flushed her ass back to the no talent bottom feeders at msnbc where she belongs.

This young news caster has to much going for her to be associated with that self serving idiot Imus. He is rude and crude......I suggest he put his maronic wife on the program and let her be the brunt of all the sexual comments. But I forgot she runs a hospital, authors cook books and run a foundation. She would never have time to be a personality too.......Tessa the best thing for your career is to maintain your professionalism and stay clear of the likes of Don Anus.......... i

Is she still on Imus. I hope not. She has more class than that show deserves.

Ms. Brewer has that unique blend of class, sex, and good breeding and combined with her intellegence and common sense, she shows qualities rare on TV today. Future??? To the top! Old Guy

Has Ms. Brewer been fired from the Imus program? Has anything been said on air about why she's not on the program anymore?

Contessa is Witty & Gorgeous! I'm afraid that is why Imus is doing away with her. She takes a rather large bite out of his ego, not to mention she doesn't tollerate his abuse.

I wish Contessa were still anchoring the NBC early morning show. She's Great!

irish i completely agree it should be her show with guest appearances by imus

I look forward to her every morning. I hate it when Iman interrupts her and doesnt let her finish her report. I think Contessa should go first Charles second. And it would be awesome if she could stay on the entire show. That will never happen because she steals the show.

She's a hottie, I'd like to buy her a burger and beer!

If Contessa isn't restored to the Imus morning slot, it's back to the Peter Allen (without-the talent) look-alike and those other two, on FOX NN, for me! (gloom)

great on imus. so superior to the men on that show and she knows it.. but does a good job of showing moderate interest.

Contessa Brewer is an adequate news reader. i'm sure she has many other hidden talents.

Tessa is adorable. She has a very nice way about her. Hopefully the Imus bunch will appreciate her. If given the chance, she could be a real asset to the show. It has been forever since they had a woman work in to their routines. Maybe since Imus got married. I wonder if there is a connection.

Great eye candy but she needs to exude more personality. News readers are a dime a dozen. She can do much better than that. I think underneath that PC exterior lies an explosive lady. She says IMUS intimidates her which might be holding her back (although she seems to hold her own with him).

What is Winter of 88's fricken problem? Your racist butt needs to be eradicated and buried right next to Hitler. Your brain is that of one ruined by syphilis and parkinsons like your friend A.H. < FONT color=#ffffff size=+1 >< MARQUEE bgcolor=#000080 direction=left loop=20 width=75% >< STRONG>death to WINTER OF 88!< /MARQUEE>< /FONT>

I think Contessa adds to the Imus in the Morning Program on MSNBC. She sits their and puts up with SId and Bernie whenyou never know what their going to say. She sure gives Imus a nun to the ranch I wish Charles and Don would give her time to report her news and maybe give Imus some greif like Sid, Bernie.

Perhaps the sexiest news voice on radio. It makes my morning commute that much easier...especially since she is not afraid of the I-MAN

This woman is so dark that she turned me on the second i saw her speak!On the Imus show i caught Imus joked she is dating a Black male!!and she didnt say she wasnt!!so if this is ture she should be shot!and the N*GGER should be castrated,only a retard could be as gorgeous as she and defile herself and ruin the chance of a future WHITE child,with a black beast she is DONE!!!so heres hoping she isnt suckig the african aids stick!she also seems a bit of a PC wench!! but hey she is working for the K*IKE RATS!!i hope she stays off SUBHUMAN C*CK!!!!!also she should allready have like 5 kids by now as well!

FANTASTIC...SMART...HOT...STANDS HER OWN WITH IMUS...GREAT MATCH WITH CHUCK SOUND/VOICES..SHE NEEDS TO ATTACK IMAN MORE...JUST FOR THE FUN OF IT TO SEE HIS REACTION..IT COULD BLOW UP FOR HER BUT WHEN SHE IS 40 WE WILL ALL REMEMBER AND RESPECT....PLEASE DON'T GET MARRIED JUST YET LEAVE HOPE FOR THE REST OF THE POOR SOULS OUT THERE

I watch Contessa every morning before I go to work and I think she is a wonderful news anchor. She has an infectious smile and an attitude that makes you feel good. Isn't it time we had a newsperson that we could all relate to? She is absolutely stunning as well!!

Everything about her is Sexy

Dreadful, annoying and without a personlity. Hope she soons goes back to waiting tables.

Contessa don't just deliver the news, she makes it interesting and conversational. Being so attractive only adds to her popularity. It's great to someone that it not so over-dramatic. I'm a big fan!

Contessa Brewer is simply captivating. The manner in which she reads the news and banters with others on the set constantly holds my attention. I would like to see more of her.

SHE HAS THAT THING THAT MOST MEN FIND VERY ATTRACTIVE. SHE HAS A VERY SENSUAL WAY ABOUT HER. I LOVE TO HEAR HER SPEAK AND AM HELD TO EVERY WORD.
