It's funny how Savage doesn't get as much hate as the other "conservative" talk show hosts. Is it because he's one of the few true conservatives left? (TBH I like Savage.)

I think it's because he's not as well known as men like Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, and Ann Coulter.

Did you not just see that he got banned from travel to the UK? If that's not "getting hated on", I don't know what is :P

Actually he's not a republican. It is impossible to say he is if one has conistently listened to him. His policy beliefs are all over the map. He is a traditional american but he is not conservative. There is a big difference.

Aside from Savage being banned from the UK, he used to be a commentator on Fox news. But he was banned from that station for stating"racist" or extreme"right wing" comments.

Talk about backfiring. They can't control free speech but they can give a good shot at going for Free listening. Fortunately it has resulted in more people from the UK listening to his show lol.

I've listened to Savage and don't like him at all. I like Hannity although I think he goes overboard at times. I can't stand Coulter. Rush is entertaining as can be. But this man will rule the world :

If you are inferring that Savage is a fool, you might want to look up his credentials or listen to his show before making that statement. You may not agree with his views, but he's a pretty intelligent person and some things he says make sense. Yeah, he says some off the wall things...but he's not a phony like a lot of the other talking heads.

Savage isn't stupid. I think he is way to the extreme right and off the wall like you say. I don't agree with much he says, but he if far more entertaining then Rush or Hannity.

Savage has a decent show, but I like listening to Rush better

It's possible that it's on account of his being gay that Michael Savage is more tolerated by liberals and moderates.

He's far more bat**** insane than any of the more known conservatives.

But I'm pretty conservative and don't find the other conservative commentators listed here bat**** insane. Savage is though.

Spewing homophobic vitriol does not confirm a person's heterosexuality. On the contrary, overtly homophobic people are often revealed as self-loathing homosexual people who cannot come to terms with their own sexual orientations.

Michael Savage fits this profile perfectly. He even wrote a semi-autobiographical novel in which the lead character (his own alter-ego) admits to struggling to suppress an attraction to men.

http://dir.salon.com/story/news/feature/2003/03/05/savage/print.html

Perhaps it should be comforting to gay people who are deeply offended by Michael Savage's rhetoric that he is, ironically, gay himself.

I never cared much for Glen Beck, his jokes are half the time unfunny.
