I tried listening to Savage but never could warm up to him.
Time and again he would be talking about some issue or another and all of a sudden pop off with some comment about how he made some point first and now the other guys were ripping him off. I would be thinking, “Where did that come from? What does that have to do with the subject?”
I would listen to these other people and they would never mention him, even in passing. I would go back to savage and eventually he would do it again. He seemed to have some kind persecution complex regarding certain other conservative talk personalities. Finally, I just stopped listening to him. He was just too odd for me.
The same with me. When i first heard him i liked him but then i tired of him and his rudeness to every guest and caller.
Schnitt does the same exact thing on his show. Last week, he claimed not to like the term "low information voter" that Rush uses. He claims to prefer a phrase that he came up with, "low information moron", since the beginning of his talk radio career. He also claimed that he was the first to have a name for that idiot group that votes for Democrats.
All that these guys (Schnitt and Savage) do is go down Drudge's page, line by line and make a 3 hour show out of it. No talent, no originality. Neither of them.
His self-aggrandizing demeanor gets old.
I think the guy is nuts, but I find some of his diatribes to be absolutely hilarious. If I could cobble together an audio file of the best five minutes from each hour of his show, it would be a talk radio classic. The problem I have with him is that he’s unbearable for the other 55 minutes every hour.
