Michael Savage: Racist

My most recent post on the Savage Nation blog titled "Savage Racism" that looks at the racism in The Savage Nation. While I was listening to Savage’s radio show today, he discussed being on CNN's TalkBack Live with Arthel Neville today in which he had a heated debate with former pro basketball player Charles Barkley. On his radio show, Savage called TalkBack Live “hate television at its lowest level.”

On TalkBack Live, Savage said the following witty things to Barkley: You couldn’t shine my shoes, buster.” and “Learn your history, brother! Learn your history, brother!” On the radio show, Savage expressed his thoughts on Barkley being on CNN: “But this an example of the mentality that Walter Isaacson pays for on CNN and this is the white liberal hiring these kind of people—you know just what I’m saying—I’m not going to mince words—making their statements have merit when there’s virtually nothing there. There’s no there there.”

I think Barkley summed it up well on the TalkBack Live: “Michael is one of those guys who is really really smart but is a dumbass.”
