...hoping my local station dumps Weiner Nation for Mark Levin
I can’t believe anyone takes Savage seriously . . he is just for amusement.
He said what I consider to be the truth about autism- it is overdiagnosed. I wonder if this was the straw?
Savage is a whack-job. He’s obnoxious, arrogant, perpetually angry, poorly reasoned, a lousy debater, manic-depressive, self-absorbed, and a general ass. He does more damage than good.
H
NO ONE HERE SHOULD FORGET WHAT HE DID FOR THE HADITHA MARINES!!!!
Back pre-9/11 I listened to Savage some and appreciated that he spoke out against illegal immigration long before 9/11 gave some more famous talk show hosts the cover and courage to speak out against it.
But he does cross the line too often. He seems to have a career death wish at times. Making those statements about autism is just nutty. Those statements can be made about ADD and probably be applicable in many cases, but I think he’ll find few who think than can be applied to autism.
I wish he’d get control of himself and eliminate the statements that can and will eventually cost him his career. He does say some things that need to be said that few others will say. but...
So let’s find a new medium for broadcasting the unvarnished, un-PC truth.
I wish more stations would dump Savage. The man is an embarrassment and does nothing productive to promote conservative values. Even when I agree with him, I can’t stand him.
Missippy Ping.
Supertalk Mississippi Radio has dropped Michael Savage and replaced him with Dennis Miller.
Savage had a rant about autism last week that crossed the line. His complaint, probably valid, was (marginally) about over-diagnosis. His delivery, very Savage, was flawed. He attacked the victims in his typical name-calling fashion rather than directing his anger at the “system” that is creating the problem.
I don’t care much for “tiradio” (tirade radio) such as Savage delivers so this is a win for me. My drive home habit of listening to Sirius radio will be altered to catch some of the Dennis Miller show.
With the way Cal adademics treated Savage, you'd think that he'd learn from his exerience and end up treating his own subordinates with a moducum of civility.
Alas, he did not. Instead, he passed the venom along with zest; he bats people around, and he's short with them, and insulting, and makes life difficult for them --he turns the insult beam on high, and cackling, reduces them to a puddle.
He expects complete loyalty, in spite of everything, and he doesn't give one scintilla of it.
Let's say Savage BBQ's for you a bit; he grills some stuff, and you eat it?
He'll resent you for that for WEEKS --probably years.
Of course I'm above pointing out to you his years of skinny-dippping, and hanging out with Timothy O'Leary and Larry.
Or that they have a hand-written letter from Savage to Allen Ginsberg, in which Mike penned his desire to puncture Ginsberg's bowel (apparently some kind of homo-erotic reference).
Insult enough of your own loyal supporters, Mike, and THEN when you really NEED them to save your sorry bacon they might not be there for you, see, Mr. brilliant Ph.D....?
Maybe they are dropping Savage because the guy shows up for work maybe once a week.
I am very very happy to have a listenable show following O’Reilly.
Miller is not my first choice (that would be Beck, followed by Levin and Bennett) but it’s a nice light entertaining take on things which I enjoy.
Savage was flat out agony.
If I were listing what shows I could stand to listen to I’d have a hard time choosing whether to rank Savage behind the likes of Al Franken.
