Called satire and most all listening would not know the Art Bell biography.
I wonder if Savage’s induction into the Radio Hall of Fame hasn’t made him a bit self-important (well, more than usual), like he’s “big” enough now that he can say whatever he wants. It might explain the things he’s been saying about Trump, as well as this cheap shot.
I think Savage is over the top on this one. Bell is a little eccentric, but not evil.
Hyperbole is protected speech, Art. And since you are a public figure you must prove “actual malice,” a nearly impossible standard under the best of circumstances.
Oh come on, Art, grow a pair. You’re 70 and you marry a 22 year old, people are gonna talk.
Michael Weiner needs to keep his mouth under control. Maybe this lawsuit will teach him to do that.
When has ever not been self important? He thinks other talk shows listen to him to get their topics.
Why would this even be relevant to the usual Michael Savage nonsense about how he’s the only person in the world who knows anything?
Not really. It was crude and cruel. When others aren’t laughing it ain’t a joke. Savage long ago became unlistenable
I stopped listening to him in 2002, whined like a liberal.
Well it isn’t like Michael Savage called Airyn Ruiz Bell a LBFM...c’mon man.
“The Bells admit that Michael Savage didn’t mention their names. But their defamation suit says “a listener of the program would understand” that Art Bell was the subject of the gibe about marrying “a 10-year-old hooker” in the Philippines and as a result being off the air.”
What an idiot. If “a listener would understand” the reference, then Bell himself is saying that this rumor about him was already in circulation and probably known to anyone listening. So what damage could Savage have possibly done to him by mentioning something that Bell assumes everyone is already aware of?
They all say that. LOL
Why do I find myself wanting to make a batch of meatballs this morning?
I thought he was talking about me...Now I find out it was about Art Bell?
The bride got slandered.
I’d be happy as a clam if the powers-that-be would eliminate both Art and Michael permanently from the radio dial.
Bell and Savage,,,?
Abbott and Costello of Talk Radio,
Correct?

It Is Funny,isn’t it.
