Michael Savage Is Not My Messenger

Michael Savage, a nationally syndicated radio talk show host, can easily be described as a member of the far right. Yesterday as Savage’s Los Angeles show began, Savage played an audio clip of someone, who I have no idea because I was not paying attention. Savage immediately yelled loudly, which caught my attention, calling the man a “t…” (a derogatory synonym for excrement) and “fat” while ordering his staff to get the man off the radio program.

I haven’t a clue about the message Savage wished to deliver because I immediately changed the radio station. I would have done that anyway because I no longer listen to Savage. His constant demeaning characterizations don’t convince me that Savage is the messenger to whom I wish to listen. Too bad, he might have a good analysis once in a while.
