Why Did C-SPAN Blacklist Savage?
TBP | Now | Moi

Posted on 06/12/2007 12:42:17 PM PDT by TBP

Michael Savage, the #3 most listened to talk-show host in America, was honored by Talkers Magazine, the "Bible" of talk radio, with this year's Freedom of peech Award.

Recently, Talkers held a bash at which they presented the award. C-SPAN, which claims to be nonpartisan and nonideological, was there and carried most of the speeches. But for some reason, it blacklisted Savage's speech accepting the award.

Why would a nonideological network do this? More liberal media bias, obviously. C-SPAN has now willingly made itself part of the liberal effort to suppress freedom of speech in this country.

Because he’s as crazy—I mean pathologically, as a loon

You're crazy. The guy is a sage. Right on every issue under the sun. Blasting Bush for 3 years over his pussy tactics in Iraq and stance on illegals, and bashed by everyone on F.R. for it--and he was dead right. Called a "liberal" by morons on this forum, when he makes Bush look like Leon Trotsky. First on the SwiftVets, first on Sinclair, first on the ports deal, first on immigration. Who represents conservative values? #3 Savage, with two PhD's, Married to the same woman for 35 years, with two successful children vs. "#1" Rush Limbaugh, who has been divorced 3 times, has no children and drugged himself deaf (and who defended the port deals and had to be dragged kicking and screaming to finally oppose Bush). You should be so "crazy".

Don’t forget...It was Brian Lamb that instituted the “caller” policy to Washington Journal during the Clinton campaign that stated no mater how many calls come in to the show, they would take one Dim, to one Republican. Before the policy change the Repubs were calling at a rate of 10-to-1 to Dims. He further stated the policy would be halted after the campaign...It is still in place. So the calls you hear are highly filtered for content. Brian Lamb is a dog of the worse kind.

Since that day I have never seen anything with Lamb or his ilk on it.

I videotaped as much as I could on 9-11. I have the footage of the victims jumping. It is indeed horrifying, but it is also necessary that we cannot whitewash the evil that our enemies (past, present and future) wish upon us.

I also remember the many relatives I have lost in Greece when the Germans occupied the country from 1941 to 1944. I know how a few were rounded up and executed and their bodies dumped in a well. They are still entombed in that well today with a memorial placed on top. There are still the remains of homes demolished by the Germans that act as a reminder that there is a price to freedom.

You seem to deliberately misunderstand.

I believe we have sanitized the war, and that is a mistake we will pay for.

Understand Michael Savage? I already mentioned- I do not trust his motives or his spoken reasons for posting the photos. I do not believe him. You can hammer and insult me as much as you like.

I love Mark Levine too... One day he made fun of Savage’s shrimp alergy and it was very funny.

I can tolerate most right-wing talk radio, except oddly, Rush.

What he said then, today makes him sound more like a visionary.

He was right on everything, from Bush, to FoxNews, to Iraq. He even wrote a book 25 years ago about the coming threat of drug-resistant T.B. from unregulated immigrantion. The medical community thought he was nuts. Today, drug-resistant T.B. from illegals is cost the State of California alone an estimated $1 billion annually.

I do not believe for one MOMENT that his motives are to remind us of the nature of the enemy.

Of course you don't. Your blindrs won't let you.

You're helping the enemy by trying to suppress those pictures. I understand that they are painful to you, but they show the barbaric nature of teh enemy and Savage is the only one who will show them to us, and then you have to go to his website to see them. It's not as if he's got them all over TV.

Like I said, maybe you should LISTEN to him once in awhile, find out what he’s about rather than continue to make silly statements. You have no idea where he’s coming from, you have no idea why the pictures were posted, you just want to stick you head in the sand and whine.....my question to you is, what has he done that makes you not trust him???
