Savage makes north of a million dollars but between his books and diversified business interests fortune, he's reportedly worth close to $100 million. Who needs radio?

Love him, hate him, revile at his rants, he's the highest-paid radio host in the Bay Area; Michael Savage, syndicated talkie that has destroyed his ghost rival, Sean Hannity not only here, (KSFO), but NY, (King of the apple), Chicago, Detroit, Dallas. It's not even close in the important radio demos that count although some advertisers are still weary of Savage's discourse. They might have to reassess that position.

This is almost entirely due to Savage following Rush on more stations now. You are more likely to stay on the station and listen to Savage than to hunt around for Hannity’s new station. They are both second string at best. Rush’s coattails are the story here.
From your link....
Despite Savage’s first two months of demo victories, Hannity still defeats Savage in overall national listenership, finishing second only to Rush Limbaugh.
I did some business with The WIener before he became The Savage..and you dont know how well you nailed em with:...
” can understand why he has no email or contact address on his web site. He is not able to accept any criticism.”
neither criticism nor DISAGREEMENT
he doesnt not handle either well at all.
yes, but in every city they are head to head, Savage wins. It’s just that wallbanger is on more stations.
In the top markets, Savage doubles or triples Wallbangers ratings.
Expect more stations to pick up Savage from cumulus broadcasting. Terrific month for Savage
A great many libs have phds. So what? A phd in bulls.. is still piled higher and deeper.
For me, I quit listening to Hannily when he kept having that “Family Values Fraud” Uncle Bill Bennett on his show, even after Bennett was caught
being a frequent gambler.
I occasionally listen or watch, but switch channels when he has Rove on.
I despise Rove.
As on the other thread, tried listening to Savage, went on and on and on about himself and was quite rude to callers. No thanks.
My opinion of Savage is that he is a huge, raging egomaniac. Maybe he believes what he says, but his biggest thing is to promote himself. No other conservative talk show host that I’m aware of bashes other ctshs unless reacting to criticism.
This is the second thread you’ve posted about this in as many hours. Obsessed much?
Why do you refer to Hannity as “wallbanger”?
How would you feel if someone called Savage “gefilte breath”?
that and his pissant little boat...I'll listen to Mike when he is runnin around in somethin like this or "bigger"...
Well, Jane, you are going to have to follow this stuff to know what the nicknames are:
Here is a little quiz of talk show host nicknames:
Who is the Hemorrhoid?
Who is the golfer?
Who is the Leprechaun?
Who is the Wallbanger?
Who is Frodo?
Okay but I’d rather have one than not.
I prefer Levin.
Know them all except Frodo. Who is Frodo?
If you have time to listen to and stomach Savage, then you need to get a job, get a life, take meds.
Just sayin’
Totally. I agree. Savage spends half his show telling us how bad Hannity and other conservatives are; its draining and small minded.
