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.

I already said their job was not the say anything. As far as being an unhappy caller. I DON’T call C-SPAN but I do listen from time to time to the nutjobs.

Did you know that Savage recently had photos of the severed heads of AMERICAN SOLDIERS on the homepage of his website?

Yes, I did. And I gather you heard O'Reilly's disinformation "Talking Points" about it the other night.

The headline on his site clearly says that "These Pictures are NOT showing the bodies of the soldiers captured recently!" but that they are pictures of "soldiers beheaded by the subhuman enemy." People need to be reminded of the barbarity of those we are fighting. That will help us win in Iraq and Afghanistan.

There must have been more to it than calling Carter the worst president ever.

That is an utter distortion of the FACTS. Levin, Rush and Laura have ALL come out against the president on many occasions- they are conservatives FIRST, and are in no way GOP water carriers.

and are in no way GOP water carriers.

But Rush did in fact use that term to describe himself after the 2006 elections.

You’re accusing Savage of not knowing his history.. somehow he knows about the 14xx loss in Kosovo by Serbia to the Ottomans that led to the rest of hte Balkins falling to Muslim control and you dont since you think history began there in 1815. Shows you to be the fool.

Famous Savage TV moment...what got him fired from More
Silly Nonsense by Chicks. Prankster East Coast Bob started telling an “airline horror story” then veered off,
mentioning talk hosts Don and Mike and saying that Savage
had horrible teeth. That was what made Savage say, “Oh,
you’re one of those sodomites” and the prank caller,
playing along, said “Yes I am”...The caller wasn’t even
gay (AFAIK)(he was trying to get MS to say something outrageous)
and Savage reacted...

He said Carter was an anti-Semite, which is undeniably true and which several former directors of the Carter Center have also said.
