Michael Savage is a well known name to rightwing radio listeners. He also happens to be an epidemiologist.

For the past two months, listeners to Savage’s conservative radio show have heard him howl with unabated contempt about another menace: “The pimps” in the right-wing media “who tell you what you want to hear.” They are “intellectual dwarfs” and “science illiterates,” he says, who spent weeks downplaying the threat from the coronavirus epidemic and accusing President Donald Trump’s opponents of exaggerating it to hurt him politically
We’re living in a terrible time in America where truth has died,” Savage, who was one of the first conservative media stars to urge Trump to run for president, told his audience. “This is crazy,” he added, pointing to the way the president’s defenders always accuse the left of spreading “fake news.”

His contempt for hosts such as Limbaugh and Sean Hannity is especially searing.

“Do you understand the danger you’re in by listening to these people and just following them blindly over a cliff?” Savage implored his audience.

Wow! This is shocking! An educated, rightwing radio host calling out the bullshit from FOXNews. 

What’s next, pigs flying?

I’ll be looking for the sprout of wings on Rush and Dotard.....
