Michael Savage Cut From Airwaves For Controversial Hillary Statements "I'VE BEEN SABOTAGED ..."
Western Journalism ^ | Sept. 27, 2016 | Charles Campbell

Posted on 09/28/2016 7:42:34 AM PDT by Trump_vs_Evil_Witch

In an email to Aaron Klein of Breitbart, Savage explained his side of the story:

Pure sabotage......during my discussion of the side effects of Levodopa, used for treating Parkinson’s....

Trying to make sense of what had happened, Savage discussed the incident on his show in real time: “I spent 30 minutes talking about Hillary’s health problems; I read you every fact about it. I then read you the pharmacology of Levodopa which is the main drug for Parkinson’s, and right in the middle of that discussion of Levodopa and its side effects, I was cut off across the country.”

Is there any comment from either Cumulus or WABC about this?

Yep. Exactly. What the heck, if he knows she’s on Levadopa then it’s public knowledge. He’s not broken any laws.

What happened to Freedom of speech? Or is that only good for those who use it against America?

I am not a fan of Michael Savage, I think he’s way too full of himself, but this is scary. One has to wonder what could happen to conservative news sites and streaming once the UN takes over the Internet Friday. No such thing as freedom of speech even in Western Europe

Savage isn’t exactly the biggest show out there...

He's ranked number 7 among the top 100 radio talk shows.

Maybe this was the “shot across the bow” for everyone. My wife likes to listen to Savage but he is too self interested for me. Anyhow, my wife has said for some time that some of Hillary’s publicly displayed symptoms matched her experiences when she was working as a nurse.

“Crony-Capitalism” is a confused term and concept that takes the focus off the REAL problem: THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

Capitalism, which is the free market economy, which is us, you and I , exercising our freedoms of pursuits every day, is our friend. Capitalism works through God-given individual self interest and operates by VOLUNTARY COOPERATION (not “fascism”) between buyers and sellers and makes nations wealthy. Capitalism is how a free America became the wealthiest, most powerful nation on earth

The federal government, on the other hand, which is geared for force and death, is not your friend, and was never meant to be your friend. The federal government has become more than 80% unconstitutional, which IS the definition of tyranny and fascism. Government also works through government self-interest and operates by FORCE, COERCION, AND THREAT OF PRISON OR DEATH and makes nations poor. Government tyranny and control is why most nations under-perfom and the standard of living for the average citizens of these nations is below the average American.

Truly in this “Information Age”, we are censored with what will soon be grave consequences similar to China, Russia, etc. Giving away the internet control is another one of the globalists’ achievements in the take down of America.

Remember the days of Radio Free Europe?

Now it is America (and the rest of the world, for that matter) who is in need of “free-ing”. It would take lots of people with lots of shortwave “transmitters” (not sure if that is the right word here) each broadcasting short distances to get information out to patriots. Interesting times ahead.

We need names.

Who ordered the show to be pulled? When was the order made? Were there any communications with government agencies?

Names, names is what we need.

This should scare the life out of everyone even more:

We have 3 days - OCTOBER 1, before the handover of American interests in the internet is handed over permanently. Congress has to stop Obama. Please put this out on Facebook, twitter and everywhere.

An injection through her heavy clothing? Dropping the needle for someone to pick up? Doubtful.

His syndicate lost their ISDN link that distributes the show to affiliates and Savage, as is his nature, is making a conspiracy out of it.

Ridiculous.

He'll be on the air just fine today.

All because the government didn’t bother to enforce the Anti-Trust laws when all of the media outlets were merging.

He’s not my favorite guy (but certainly not my least favorite) on the radio...but even if I despised him I would be alarmed about this. This appears to be nothing less than outright censorship - and more importantly, it is a harbinger of exactly the kind of tyrannical behavior that we can expect under a Clinton Administration.

Savage should rise or fall based upon whether radio networks wish to carry him - all on their own, without ANYONE in the government taking a position one way or the other - and that is likely to be based upon his ratings.

FYI, I LOVE his books. “Liberalism is a Mental Disorder” is among the best political books I’ve ever read [he can’t yell and scream in print].

Fan or no fan of his - that would be a mighty coincidence considering it fell on debate day dont you think?

“Are they going to cut them ALL off? Geez don’t give them any ideas.”


Part of me actually hopes that they do. Go ahead, pull the plug on Rush, Hannity, Levin, Prager, everyone pulling for Trump - just disconnect all of them. Maybe toss them in jail, too. It’ll get the counter-revolution started sooner, when we have a better chance of winning.

No, of course I don’t really think this way - but it is tempting. This does illustrate the breakpoint that this election has become - either we back away from the precipice right now, or we close our eyes and jump. There is no middle ground. If we jump, we will enter a new Dark Ages from which humanity may never emerge.

Yet, most here don't see anything very wrong with the US giving up control of the internet. Like THESE kinds of actions won't happen?

Where is most of the critique of libs and dims come from? Talk Radio and the Internet.
