At least with Savage, he has accomplished more than most people have in life regarding his chosen fields of endeavor....
Talk show host
author
PhD and published books? Of course he is accomplished.
Of my favorite talk show hosts a couple have been published twice or more, a couple are recognized Constitutional attorneys (not the kind that teach community activism), a couple come from the entertainment industry (with all of the great anecdotes appertaining thereto).
Yes, Michael is accomplished.
