Over the course of the past month, while promoting his new book that may “change the course of human events,” radio host Michael Savage has announced that he has not only “saved talk radio” but is also the “foremost conservative intellectual.”

Where does such a sharp mind get his information? Apparently, from Iranian state-owned TV.

Currently on the homepage of Michael Savage's website - underneath the giant ad for his new book - is the following story about how Obama is “unlikely to last 1st term”:

This links to a story by Press TV, which is “sponsored by Iran's state-run television operation, Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting.”

As an added bonus, the story consists of quotes from Edward Spannus of the Executive Intelligence Review about people in the “Democratic Party who are seriously considering how to remove Obama from presidency.” The Executive Intelligence Review is the weekly newsmagazine founded by fringe conspiracy theorist Lyndon LaRouche.

Yet again, conservatives' vetting process for the stories they pick up seem to be: “Does this reflect poorly on the president? Print it!”
