Examiner.com reports that Savage vows to "retaliate" against Media Matters by posting "pertinent information" about staff

June 24, 2009 8:28 am ET by Media Matters staff

From a June 24 Examiner.com article:

Right wing talker Michael Savage vowed yesterday during his broadcast that he will retaliate against media watchdog Media Matters for America by posting pictures and "pertinent information" about the organization's staff on his website. He made the comment almost in passing during one of his infamous rants, but did not explain what he expected his followers known as the "Savage Nation" to do with the information.

[...]

Against this backdrop the threat to post pictures and personal information about media watchdogs as a response to criticism can legitimately be perceived as a threat. Michael Savage may be famous for brash talk and incendiary language, but recent history must be taken into account as his "Savage Nation" may take the talker's inflammatory posting as marching orders to take action against his enemies.

      What kind of information are you going to post Mikey? Sounds like a threat to me. Sounds like you're asking your minions to take matters into their own hands.

      I don't remember where and when MMFA did that to you.

      As long as he does not post pictures of himself and Allan Ginsburg skinny dipping than I can't wait to see what he's got on MMFA

      Oh, you mean that Savage is going to attack the messenger, and not the message?

      What a unique (not) thing for a person from the right to do!

      magnolialover - You are exactly right. The rightwing knows it has followers who hate their fellow Americans with such zeal they will go off eventually and carry out the marching orders. There is no possible reason for "fingering" anyones ID, home, family, etc. other than for intimidation or attack. Savage is a stain on our country and belongs off the air and publishing badly xeroxed fliers with "end of the world coming" and the like on the headline.
