A suit coat, tie, and dress shirt.

When they were going to a break, I noticed the I-Man had blue jeans and
cowboy boots on below the camera's view.

To me - that's appropriate TV attire because in theory - no one see below
your waist anyway.

I've heard many a story of TV anchors wearing "appropriate" attire above the
anchor desk, while below the desk was a different story.  From blue jeans to
boxers.

Ahhh - the fancy life of TV News Anchors.

As for Imus - he did seem a little sluggish and I think Russert was
expecting a little bit more fire.  Maybe time is finally catching up to the
I-Man.
