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.

A personal attack on Hannity was added to the headline by the poster.
Does his title change any facts in the article?
This is a conservative?
I am a talk radio junkie. My radios have only two settings: Talk and Off. When Savage is the only option, I choose the latter.
On that note...Hannity’s website is free now. All podcasts are free since the change. And that works for me since he left my city and was replaced by Savage with Dennis Miller replacing Huckabee. I don’t know and don’t care what is on when Savage used to be live. I used podcasts or stream shows live.
Not this listener! After Rush, I stay on WOR. I’ll take Hannity anytime over the noise on WABC at that time.
It’s the personal attack that is the issue. Sean’s a good guy. He doesn’t deserve this kind of treatment, especially on FR. If Savage beats him in ratings, fine report that. No need to tear down Hannity in the process.
Interesting posting history you have...and I do mean interesting. I just love the one where you claim the kids shot to death at Sandy Hook weren’t really shot, but played by actors, LOL.
I actually don’t care for either show. I consider Hannity to be ‘conservatism for beginners’ while Savage is ‘conservatism for the unhinged’.
But Hannity is outstanding when it comes to veterans and our active troops and that is well worthy of respect.
But you’re quite right. There’s no need for personal attacks, especially when they’re clearly a ploy for attention.
“Any cost for it? Sounds like a great service?”

Darn if I remember. Seems that I was doing one free show per day, but then paid something to do multiple programs.
I have had it for several years.
I am listening to today’s Savage as I type this.
Go to the home page and check it out. I have exchanged a few emails with Michael, the guy who runs it.
Sean seems like a great guy. Savage, not so much.
But something is causing Hannity’s ratings to drop.
I have my own opinion, but so does everybody else.
Probably why I was never a radio programmer.
Biggest phony and detriment to conservatives on the planet.
Seems like a great service. One spot to record and hear what you want, when you want.
“Sean seems like a great guy. Savage, not so much.”

Yea, I would hate to think what Savage’s reaction is when someone bumps into him on the street.
Where are you in TN?

Dr Savage is a patriot- but he’s so JEALOUS of others success.
And look at ‘some’ Freepers: they fail to realize that we need to ‘close ranks’, and forget about our differences, and stand UNITED against those intent upon destroying our republic.
This I don’t understand: WHY do so many in here consistently undermine those who love America, but who might believe a little differently than they believe?
lol! Too true.
Can’t get Savage in Los Angeles, haven’t been able to for years.
What, on God's green Earth does that have to do with Michael Wiener?
He's attempting an old liberal/democrat trick. Try to change the subject by throwing some irrelevant crap against the wall to see if it sticks.
Very good point. And I've met Hannity and he came across as a very good guy.
