Radio host angers parents of autistic children

Can't help but notice the similarity between Michael and his pooch.....what a buffoon....

As usual, Savage goes too far, but I agree that many behavioral issues today are due to parental lack of discipline. I have a friend who works at a very expensive Ausberger's Syndrome treatment center and she says most of these teens are spoiled brats with wealthy parents who find it easier to throw money at the problems. This is a generalization that isn't appropriate for many, but worth considering that parents just don't know how to be in charge these days.

So, someone who has never heard of him, doesn't listen to him, wants him fired? He's a RADIO PERSONALITY. Don't like him or his views? Change the channel. If enough people do it, he won't have a job anymore because no company will spend the money to sponsor his show if no one is listening.

Demanding someone be fired from the airwaves because they hurt someone's feelings will leave no one broadcasting at all.

It appears that certain Hollywood elitists and others believe that we live in a fascist state, where they can prevent others from voicing opinions contrary to their own. If every public figure lost their employment because they offended someone there would be a lot of people out of work. I'm personally offended by the Democratic Party platform and those who vote to support it, should they all lose their jobs? Use your common sense. I don't care for Mr. Savage's program so I exercise my personal freedom... I don't listen to it. We got to stop trying to control everyone else and learn to tend to ourselves.

i don't think he should be stripped of his personal freedoms. i think he should educate himself before he opens that big mouth he has. as a parent of a mentally challenged child, it's people like him that make it harder for us to help our children adjust to an already harsh world. he has no idea what it's like to go through what we as parents go through with special needs children,. i can only hope that he never experiences the gift of one of these wonderful children because he lacks the commonsense and compassion it takes to help them. he has shown his ignorance to the entire nation and is an embarrassment!!

Mr. Savage does not think his job should be at risk for the comments he made, he wants to know if we want to live in a country where someone's career is in stake for comments made. Well Mr. Savage we already do, I work with hositalized individuals and if I went around making rude comments about them I would lose my job. We live in a country where we have freedom of speech, but we still need to exercise some responsibility for what we say. You have every right to your opinions, but like everyone you need to be responsible for your comments. You are in a position to influence people and should use that influence responsibly. Like any working individual, if you cross the line you should be held responsible. Millions of Americans go to work each day and watch their tongues to keep their jobs, why should you be any different.

He is paid money to say things that some people will be happy about and that some will be deeply offended by. A little different than having a job in a hospital and talking about the patients-kind of Apples and Oranges. This guy gets paid to talk and entertain-not to provide physical therapy or other help benefit.

I don't agree with his comments-and I don't listen to him. People need to get off the 'I'm offended, so he must go' kick. Turn the channel, my friend.

On his radio show last week, he said: "What do you mean they scream and they're silent? They don't have a father around to tell them, `Don't act like a moron. You'll get nowhere in life. Stop acting like a putz. Straighten up. Act like a man. Don't sit there crying and screaming, you idiot.'"

Now there's a loving way to speak to your child.

This guy is definitely screaming for attention - and we're giving him just what he wants!
