The Savage Nation speaks out!

And, just as crassly as their favorite radio host - to no one's surprise.

As we reported on the last ELPN broadcast, Michael Savage Wiener somehow managed to win a "Freedom of Speech" award from Talkers Magazine. The awards ceremony was covered by C-SPAN. Savage declined to grace this ceremony with his presence, and instead sent a DVD of an acceptance speech. C-SPAN cut away from the airing of his canned speech, leading Savage to go on yet another "they hate me, they're Nazis" tirade against the public network. C-SPAN's Brian Lamb has since explained the network's decision not to air Savage's acceptance (the rant and Lamb's explanation are now on one page), but that wasn't enough to sate the Savage Nation. Lamb read a handful of irate e-mails from the knuckle-dragging right wing rejects who listen to Savage on his show a few days ago. Stunning stuff.

On a side note, Savage is now SELLING this speech for $20 on his website. Disgusting.

And, as a second note, last Friday, Savage went off on the Massachusetts legislature, claiming that the "gay mafia" bought their votes to keep gay marriage legal in their state.
