Imus’ Return: Not With Fox News

The NYTimes‘ Jacques Steinberg has an update on Don Imus‘ impending return to radio. But a Fox News exec tells TVNewser Steinberg got part of the story wrong:

Separately, Mr. Imus is seeking a television channel to simulcast his radio program, as MSNBC did. Among those networks considered possibilities, the three people said, are Fox News, YES (the Yankees’ cable channel) and SportsNet New York (which broadcasts the Mets.)

The FNC executive tells TVNewser “there have been no conversations with Imus about joining Fox News.”
