Well, if you don't know that he solicited the murder of someone he didn't agree with over the air ON HIS RADIO SHOW in June or July of this year, I'm not surprised. There was NO coverage. He said the man should be dead. He said he would supply the bullets. It was almost entirely blacked out by the news (of course). I'm a Constitutionalist; neither a liberal or a conservative. Extremes on either left or right is dangerous. It's a lot more difficult to remain focused and stay in the middle. WAIT A MINUTE~

You are obviously a Michael Savage fan but are too chicken-shit to admit it. You are undoubtedly a dumb c#%t! I guess if you choose not to read this, just like I choose not to listen to nazi's like that d#*k-head Weiner, these rude statements won't offend. But that doesn't really make it go away does it? As far as freedom of speech goes, I support it. But as far as these a$$hole corporations that put these stupid c*%k-suckers on the air, those f#@ks are the ones that need going after. A while back, several Clear Channel radio stations, (Cleveland, Tucson, and one in a Florida market), all had jocks on the air ON THE SAME DAY, that suggested to their listeners that it was okay to harrass and attack bicycle riders. Un-provoked attacks on bicycle riders occurred in all 3 of the markets mentioned. These were, allegedly, totally un-related incidents, (at least according to the kids at Clear Channel). However the FCC didn't believe that it was just a bizarre or random happenstance, (kind of like anybody who has a brain), and Clear Channel was fined $20,000 by the FCC. The people that were attacked DID NOT LISTEN to the B.S. on the radio. So, the "NOT LISTENING" technique, that sounds so neat and tidy to a couple of you nice folks-GAG, is worthless. ALL OF YOU NEED TO WAKE UP! THIS IS A CONCERTED EFFORT BY THE MEDIA TO FLEX THEIR SICK MUSCLES. Hey America, flex back or DIE!!!

Mark Master also peddles a show hoste by his own father (!) that's selling the same lies. No wonder Savage's comments seem reasonable to him. Talk Radio Network and CEO Mark Masters spin is even more disingenous than you may think. TRN also syndicates a show hosted by Mark Masters father - Roy Masters - who is spreading the same lies about autism. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ga5j4MSlKdw Savage isn’t the only Talk Radio Network show pushed by Mark Masters that is spreading ignorance on autism.

It is a situation where ratings will be hurt and gained - thanks to human nature. Don't fire him for what he said - you don't agree(?) - argue politely or don't listen. Personally, I choose not to listen... Mike’s comments are easy to take a “what he said VS what I heard” view. It is a situation where ratings will be hurt and gained - thanks to human nature.
