but making death threats to a caller will NEVER fly

What garbage! I just downloaded the audio stream and he madeno death threat. I've listened to Savage for a long time on the radio. Never heard him make anything like a death threat.

All this "death threat" stuff is moot anyway. Savage does not know who he was talking to in the first place! Suppose I said the same thing to you here or said "I'm going to kill you JennysCool". I would not, of course. But how would I do that anyway? You could be in China for all I know. So? I go to China and start yelling your screen name? Don't know your real one.

Interesting comments here. I've listened to Savage on the radio for some time. Most nights. I have never seen his TV show. I'm amazed it was live without any delay. Savage can be very acerbic and sarcastic. He takes some getting used to. The accent grates on most of us Texans. But I know people from New York and New Jersey and some of them make Savage seem like a wimp language wise. One person I know was on a TV show about some older ladies. The show had the word "Golden" in it. In real life you would not believe the mouth on her. Oh my!

BTW, who here has been around TV productions? They are all so scripted it's boring. It appears that at least Savage's TV show had some zing to it. But he went off on the wrong group. Or seemed to. There are too many queers in the "biz" to let what he said (which was kind of funny) slide. So, he got politically corrected off the TV.

We might as well just all agree the only thing that can be shown on TV is a bowl of milk. But then THAT would bother somebody too.

Sticks and stones......

I'm very proud that conservatism has made it back from the nadir of the Clinton years. I enjoy people like Coulter and the "reborn" Dennis Miller who mix wit with their politics while managing not to alienate the Great American Middle. They -- along with Fox News, Free Republic and other outlets -- have restored common-sense Conservatism to its rightful place in the national dialogue, which helps our common-sense President to shine.

If Savage wants to be a shock jock, fine, more power to him. But with the strides we've made, I don't want to see Conservatism's enemies given a cudgel to strike us with. And you just KNOW the stories intimating that ALL conservatives are intolerant based upon this Michael Savage incident are just a breath away. That's something we simply don't need.
