Long-time New York sportscaster Warner Wolf, known for his trademark phrase "let’s go to the videotape," sued radio host Don Imus for age discrimination, saying he was improperly terminated in 2016 at the age of 78 and replaced with a decades-younger man.
Wolf began to appear on Imus’ show as a contributor starting in December 1996 and continually appeared on the show until 2007 when its was canceled after the host made a racially discriminatory remark about Rutgers University women’s basketball players. Wolf returned to show eight months later when broadcasts resumed.
