to a caller to his show as "a sodomite" who should "get AIDS and die"

After this liberal sounding remark--what does he expect??

[Wolfie]

Could be meltdown mode. Or maybe just publicity for his book.

[StuLongIsland]

Would love to see Hannity have him on during drive time, doubt he will put a guy on a competive station. If he doesn't have Savage on, would be like what he has been complaining the MSM have been doing to him.

[joesbucks]

A Fox News Channel spokesperson responds: "One is a well-known hater, and the other is a notorious publicity hound. We congratulate them on their successful attention-grabbing efforts."

It's funny, but the each of the above descriptions fits both Donohue and Savage. Sow who is who and which is which.

[squidward]

Does anyone know why Savage is no longer on xm radio? For a while they ran spots saying he requested to be taken off but I never heard why.

Michael Savage is an acquired taste. He's not always good. But when he is good he is great and blows the competition out of the water. He was great during the slow motion execution of Terri Schindler/Schiavo. He smacked down the godless conservatives who called the show

[Hatteras]

Sorry, but Michael Savage is a breath of fresh air compared to Sean Hannity. Sean (someone please throw a pie at me too!) Hannity would wet his pants if he had to face Michael Savage.

[Wallace T.]

You would hardly expect The New York Post, owned by the same owner (Rupert Murdoch) as is Fox, to be "fair and balanced" relative to Savage and Donohue in their controversy with Bill O'Reilly, one of Fox's lineup.

[Perdogg]

His real name is Michael Wiener. Yes, like Oscar Meyer.

[gorush]

I wouldn't say he "blasts Rush Limbaugh", good for him that he didn't, too, or he'd have me to deal with. :{)

[mwyounce]

Recently burned more bridges by calling O'Reilly a "Leper-Con

I know what a Leprechaun is.... but what's a Leper-Con?

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

I heard him go into a tirade one night about Rush. He was nuts. Couldn't he find any RATS to go after? He has to go after his allies? I turned him off and will only listen to him when in the car and there's nothing else to listen to.

[G.Mason]

With all due respect, Savage is and always has been, a what you see is what you get kind of guy. No pretensions there.

Bill O'Reilly runs in the holier than thou crowd and is a figment of his own imagination.

Poor Sean Hannity. He's lost in space and survives on viewer sympathy. I mean how many years has the viewing audience waited for Sean to say something remarkable?

[bahblahbah]

"Both are jealous of my audience and are trying to silence me because they do not want the competition."

Hannity has a much bigger audience than Savage.

[BigSkyFreeper]

This suggests to me that Savage is floundering.

[the invisib1e hand]

med refill alert.

I listened to a small bit of O'Reilly's radio show last week.

He had on as a guest a constitional lawyer, who was supporting the legality and constitutional consistency of the Congress passing a law or tax favoring opposite-sex-only 'traditional marriage. The lawyer was absolutely correct in his legal analysis, which went ENTIRELY over o'Reilly's head, as O'Reilly does not understand the Equal Protection Clause.

O'Reilly, on the other hand, was boasting (surprise?) that he was a "strict constructionist" and bombasting that failing to provide gay couples with similar tax benefits was unconstitutional, on "equal protection" grounds. As a lawyer, I can tell you that O'Reilly's legal reasoning was so wrong as to be laughable.

The thing that got me is that O'Reilly is SO arrogant that he thinks he can, effectively, BLUFF his audience and posture in areas where he has amateur-level knowledge, and think that nobody will notice.

I lost ALL respect for him -- and his guest was so exasperated the guest was literally gasping in disbelief.

[elli1]

Nothing in the article to indicate that Savage 'blast[ed] Rush Limbaugh'.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

...by calling O'Reilly a "Leper-Con who poses as a conservative

Interesting, because that's how I view Savage. For some reason, I get the feeling that his views are all schtick.

[TexasCajun]

Clear Channel has placed Michael Savage right after Rush and Sean's radio broadcast here in Houston for some reason?

It's not because CC likes to lose money.
