Examiner.com: Savage "appeared to back off" vow to "post pictures and other 'pertinent information'" for Media Matters staff

June 25, 2009 9:46 pm ET by Media Matters staff

From a June 25 Examiner.com article:

Earlier this week on his radio show, Michael Savage vowed to post pictures and other 'pertinent information' about the staff of watchdog group Media Matters for America. In a statement during his radio show today he appeared to back off, saying only that an unidentified person was researching publicly available information such as the group's tax filings. Non-profit organizations must file IRS form 990 and are available for public inspection.

Apparently his call for right wing talkers and fellow travelers to rise up against this media watchdog was met with a resounding silence. His attempt to push back and silence his critics appears to be a failure. It is difficult for Savage to push back against reporting that includes recordings of his own words.

Mr. Savage, We're Still Listening...

      Once again, Michael the Savage Weinertries to silence his critics, and once again, he fails completely.

      Give it up, Savage. You're a loser.

      I guess he doesn't want to end up in prison after all...

      Heh! I would've loved to have been a fly on the wall as Savage's buddies told him "Uh, don't do that."

      Part of Savage Weiner's justification for such action, as you may recall, is, "let's see how they like it."

      Somehow, the Weiner has drawn an equivalence between posting a recording of someone's own words on a website and the dissemination of personal information.

      Someone must have informed Savage that it would be difficult to post photos on the radio. ;>)

      Perhaps the arrest of Hal Turner gave him pause. I hope it did. I hope it gave all the hate talkers a moments pause to reconsider the road they are traveling.

      Just wanted to say thank you to the Media Matters staff for exposing this blowhard for the fraud that he is, don't let up on him please. This man has ruined many peoples objectivity and turned them into misinformation zombies.

      Savage is just a jackhole who hasn't been told to cut the act out.

      Keep up the heat on this prick.
