I'm not suprised.

[frogjerk]

Ouch!

I agree with some of what Savage says, but he is starting to sound like a nut of late. As for Howard Stern number one? I refuse to listen to him or purchase any services from the Satellite company that will employ him, Sirius.

I just find Savage too, well, savage for my tastes.

They are both bottom feeders.

But Savage was just saying last week that he'd beat Rush and Hannity???  Remember?  He said Drudge wouldn't cover it 'cause he's on that same network?

Now I have to wonder, is Savage just dumb, or a liar, or both?

Why anyone, conservative or otherwise, would listen to Michael Savage's constant whining is beyond me. I love conservative radio but can't stand Savage's pathetic hopelessness.

[frogjerk]

And Levin beats O'Reilly...interesting...

Michael Savage is a Howard Dean mole. But he doesn't realise that Howard Dean is a Karl Rove mole. :)

[T'wit]

16th place vs. 17th place is Big News.

[joebuck]

I'm sure this only happened because Savage is a complete nutburger.

"the top 20 talkers ***in New York***"


This is not a big shock. Talk to me when he's bigger on the whole national scene!

[Busywhiskers]

Oh....Rush and Hannity are beating Savage also. Listening to Savage you would think he had them on the ropes--ratings wise.

[fish hawk]

Savage is committing mouth suicide. It's a slow death.

[GOP_Party_Animal]

LOL, good one!

[dead]

It's actually kind of pathetic that a liberal lickspittle like Franken averages less than a thousand more listeners than a raving rightwing lunatic in a bastion of liberalism like NYC.

That's sort of like the Yankees beating the Red Sox by a thousand listeners in the Bronx.

Actually, this applies to Savage and Franken.
