Mr. Savage proudly calls himself conservative, even right wing, and his audience has proved to be both enormous and loyal, sticking with him after MSNBC pulled the plug on a simulcast of his radio show in 2003. The action came after he said he hoped a caller to his radio show, who had identified himself as gay, would die of AIDS.First, MSNBC did not simulcast the Savage radio show, rather the television show was completely separate from his radio show. Furthermore, Savage's show was not pull off the air at MSNBC because he said he hoped a gay caller would die of AIDS, rather Savage said he had hoped the caller would die from choking on a sausage.
This is another example of sloppy reporting by the MSM. I think the first step the MSM should implement is limiting their errors to one a paragraph.
