MICHAEL SAVAGE FIRED….MSNBC has finally fired Michael Savage. Charles Kuffner has the story.

Still, I’m confused. Apparently MSNBC’s management decided that Savage had crossed a line when he told a gay caller, “You should only get AIDS and die, you pig.” How exactly does that differ from his usual fare?

Oh well, I guess we should count our blessings regardless. Now he can go back to his radio cesspool and rant about how he’s been a victim of the liberal media elites that are choking off free expression in this country. I’m sure his listeners will eat it up.
