Liberals didn't make Savage dress this way.
Radio host Michael Savage, the man who won Talkers Magazine's "Freedom of Speech" award and didn't bother to show up for the cerremony, has been sued for taking away the freedom of speech of a group that posted a YouTube video.
The ironies abound: Savage sued the Arab-American group CAIR for using tape of one of his anti-Arab rants on its Web site, but had it thrown out of court. The group claimed that rebroadcast of his rant was fair use.
Now, he's stopped another group from using his material to demonstrate and poke fun of his hate speech.
The guy is the master of the frivilous lawsuit. When he didn't get interviewed by the University of California at Berkeley for a job as dean of its journalism, he sued, even though he had no journalism experience.That one was scoffed at by a judge.
That one was scoffed at by a judge and thrown out of court.
(Savage peddled vitamins before he peddled hate.No photo better captures his character.)
He sued to have negative Web sites about him taken off the net, but the owner of www.savagestupidity.com won his right to publish material about him.
He and publicity hound lawyer Daniel Horowitz campaigned for weeks on the air to raise money to fight CAIR, claiming he was protecting his right to speech by stopping theirs--a concept right out of "1984," where truth is a lie and a lie is the truth.
One can only guess where all that money went, assuming suckers really donated. Earlier in his career, Savage raised almost $1 million for his tax exempt "Paul Revere Society," but the IRS and State of California pulled his tax exemption.
One can only wonder where that money went also. Calls to Attorney General Jerry Brown's office have not answered the quesiton.
