Well that's the problem!
I've been listening to him a few days a week for over a year now. It seems he's gotten worse lately with the rudeness and insults. He makes me so mad sometimes when he doesn't give other people a chance to speak and yells nasty things at them and hangs up. What a jerk!!! I even resort to screaming at the radio sometimes.

I would agree with your assessment except every once in a while he will have a great show.

I discovered Savage in Central Florida about 2 years ago. Since then I listen much of the time (he is pre-empted by the Orlando Magic whenever they play, though still available on the web). He can be great listening when he is pissed off but it is tempting to hit scan when he starts all that self adoration. His attempts to paint call-ins who may disagree with him before he ultimately hangs up on them is transparent, weakens his arguments and insults his listeners.

As far as the article is concerned, it is the stations right to practce what amounts to censorship. Generally a business won't do this because ultimately the bottom line (revenue) rules. Perhaps that has been weighed here and the choice of KUGN loosing savage or the university meant that financially the university was more important to the stations bottom line. I would think that one of KUGN's competition has been handed an opportunity. It would be interesting to know if this occurs.
