Simply Dumb

Michael Savage Doesn’t Believe In Autism

by brian on July 23rd, 2008

No, really.  The conservative shock jock Michael Savage just refuses to accept the  serious medical condition is real in “99 percent of the cases.” I often think, or at least hope, that these hosts just say dumb stuff like this to get a reaction.

So Brian, you might ask, aren’t you just playing into Savage’s hands? At this point even Savage probably realizes he may have crossed a line that will eventually get him fired. You may remember Savage lost his MSNBC TV show after some inappropriate comments on homosexuality.

Again, in the wake of Don Imus you’d think radio hosts would still be on their guard. And yes, obviously as a blogger I believe in freedom of speech. But I know if I come on this site and type something like “b5 Media has been linked to global warming, high gas prices and the general decline of NBA basketball, I will be looking for other employment.

As much as we have the right to free speech, our employers have the right to kick us out the door if we abuse the privilege. Advertisers have the right not to participate in our show if thousands of parents are angered by its content. Hope that works out for you, Savage. Oh wait, no I don’t.
