God help our country

I think our country is more fucked up then most of us realize.

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=37931

"The Michael Savage Show is the 4th most listened-to talk radio show in America with an average of 8-10 million listeners each week on over 330 stations, in syndication with the Talk Radio Network."



This man is the most hateful SOB in talk radio today, and you never know what ethnic slur is going to come out of his mouth next. The fact that he has the 4th highest rated show in the country is highly disturbing.

4. i'm not big on censorship, but i've heard him call for genocide of Arabs &
for that i really don't think he should be allowed to remain on the airwaves.

5. Isn't it against the law to incite genocide over the mass media???
I swear to God, I think there's a law against that.

and HAS no source.

13. Yep. If I was God, I would have nothing to do with this country, except
to brutally punish those tards who seem to think that God is on "their side".

12. Question: Does anybody here really listen to him?
I don't. Maybe I'm an ostrich, but I can't even stand to watch the chimp president when he's cut in to my broadcast day.

For those with the stomach, I applaud your efforts to monitor the opposition, but it's still all about numbers and reach and tune-in. Please don't contribute if you don't have to. Monitors with a stomach can report back to the rest of us. (If you haven't seen a train wreck, you have my permission to view it once. Otherwise, please disregard.) Don't encourage them.

Please, make them irrelevant. Don't listen. Don't watch. Don't buy from their advertisers. Oh, and let them know why.

If nobody buys it, who is going to sell it?

14. He came from SF? And he's popular?
really? i've seen his billboards, but i don't see any bumper stickers of him from fans, can't think of a single person who likes him and listens to him, let alone really know who he is. he's like such a non-entity in SF area. all that money wasted in trying to get listeners and still i've yet to come across people who even care if he breathes.

dunno, them numbers are mighty fishy to me.
