the only thing they [Sirius] say is their "contractual obligations" have changed.

That's code word for "Savage is a nut".

I was on this on Monday. I called up Sirius and a nice fella at customer service took down my complaint and request that Savage should be back on. I noted that he is on XM.

The next day I wrote Sirius customer service about it, and I got this response:

"Thanks, we got your e-mail! At SIRIUS, we appreciate the time you have taken to contact us regarding Michael Savage. We regret to inform you that Savage Nation was cancelled because our contract with Michael Savage ran out and we were unable to renew this contract. We understand and apologize for any frustration that may be caused by this."

So I think that means that Savage & Crew wanted more $ (or Sirius wants me to think that). In any case, it is a loss - but the additon of Liddy is a good one. Actually, if Sirius got Savage back and added Medved, they would have the grand-slam of conservative lineup in Sat Radio (2 Conservative Channels and Hannity is on ABC radio).

I was going to get XM because of the MLB contract anyway (I am going to be a 2 sat radio house) - $120 a year for every MLB game is too good to pass up, in itself. Savage only seals the deal, but I LOVE the Sirius music channels.

I wish Savage would be dumped by every station.

That guy sucks.

I just started listening to Doc Savage's 2nd hour and he has fired his first salvo on Sat Radio - he explictly said that you should listen to him on his local stations and not on any sat radio.

I guess he feuded with Sirius over the right to carry his show, and I suspect will be doing the same with XM.

Savage has gone off the deep end. He is screaming and moaning about satellite radio and asking his listeners not to listen to satellite but to 'terrestrial' radio. Why? He probably got dumped and rather than taking it like a man, he sounds like a whining little kid.

He is also now advocating censorship of satellite radio to, in his words, level the playing field. Does this have anything to do with Stern making fun of handicapped people since Savage had a handicapped son? More than likely. But, as disgusting as Stern is, to advocate censorship because of a personal beef?

Lately he has also been whining quite a bit about Rush and O'Reilly. Sorry but it sounds like whining to me.

If he says anything worth hearing about, let us know. I had to turn Savage off.

savage himself asked to be removed from sattelite radio after ranting last tuesday that it should be regulated by the FCC, at least that's the story I'm getting. As for the show last tuesday, he was on that rant, I heard it, and lo and behold, the follwing monday he was gone from my xm radio. Have a nice time talking to yourself Savage, as for I and millions of others have no other way of tuning in.
