Don Imus will be not just broadcasting live tomorrow in Providence as he does every weekday morning on 790 AM, he'll be broadcasting in person, from Providence. He's bringing his nationally syndicated radio show to the Rhode Island Convention Center from 6 to 10 a.m. to benefit the Groden Network, which focuses on helping adults and children with autism, a favorite cause of Imus, a philanthropist also known for starting the Imus Ranch for kids with cancer in New Mexico. Imus will be on site in Providence with sidekick and newsman Charles McCord, co-host Karith Foster, sportscaster Tony Powell, and executive producer Bernard McGuirk. Imus has had a 30-year run as a national force in radio, and is known for mixing an irreverent style with serious interviews, conducted with a casual twist, with national figures. He's come to Rhode Island before, and over the years, had Vincent "Buddy" Cianci Jr. on as a frequent guest while he was still mayor. Tickets -- all proceeds go the cause -- can be purchased online -- Journal columnist Mark Patinkin
