Re: Herald: WRKO to evaluate Savage

With respect to my earlier comment, I had not yet heard the full Michael
Savage quote that got him canned.  Having heard it, I agree that it was
beyond the bounds of acceptance.

As for liberal hosts, I've been wracking my brain trying to think of the
name of the ding dong (alleged) wife beater from Boston who ended up with a
syndicated show out of LA.  He was equally over the top on his show, albeit
in the opposite direction.
