Radio host Michael Medved revealed on his website today that he was diagnosed with throat cancer last month. He writes, I always knew that it would take something serious to keep me away from the microphone I cherish for an extended period of time. As it turns out, I am facing something serious. Its called cancer."
Medved was diagnosed with stage three throat cancer and said that its actually a highly curable form of cancer.
And while hed been able to keep his radio show going as he underwent treatment, Medved says hes taking a leave of absence from his radio program until my recovery is more advanced.
He assures loyal listeners hell still be writing, and thanks them, his family, and his staffers for staying by his side for so long.
Thanks for your get-well wishes to Michael and his family.
You are welcome for the insight into this enemy of conservatism and despiser of Palin, Cruz, and the tea party.
This is a discussion forum, not your personal get well card for celebrities that get sick.
I agree, however, I am sorry he is sick.
I’m also sorry he is sick, but the news is full of sick and dying celebrities, it doesn’t always mean that we have to sound like we are physically in the hospital room with them or trying to write a group, get well card.
Medved absolutely despises us, and his show has degenerated in the years since Palin arrived, to the point where he is THE radio host for the anti-tea party GOPe.
You know your rant is out of place on this cancer thread, I don’t agree either with what much of Medved stands for, but sheesh....
No it isn’t, this is a discussion forum on politics, and in this case, a radio host that despises us.
As he points out, this is highly curable, and this isn’t a wake.
Prayers up for Mr. Medved. No station in this market carries him, but I’ve heard his program when I’ve been out on the road.
Prayers for his health and healing.
I truly hate Medved and have for a decade.
But news like this is horrible. I would never wish this on anyone.
Politics is fleeting. Our country is gone. Best not to fall victim to hatred.
Prayers for the Medveds!
During the "W" era, here comes Medved acting the same way. I used to say, "He's the GOP's Lanny Davis."
Turns out, they were best friends @ Yale and lifelong pals!!!
Why would you dedicate your life to being a political hack?
The way he so frequently has Lanny Davis on his show, seems bizarre until one learns Medved’s politics.
