Michael Savage Defends Petraeus To Counter MSM Spin

There’s a funny media disconnect between being in Iraq and being back home, in the United States. No matter how much TV you may or may not watch, or how many articles you try to read, for getting a real sense of what’s going on, there’s no substitute for actually being there.
And then there’s Michael Savage. The reason why Savage is the 2nd highest rated show in the US is because he transmits a lot of emotion. Whether you agree with him or not, you have to admit the guy delivers a lot of emotion. Despite all the complaints this guy gets, in a City like San Francisco, no less, he is still the most listened to person in the Bay Area.
I only watched a bit of General Patraeus’ report. The feedback I’ve gotten from people here is that the General is a highly regarded man. Michael Savage did a re-cap of hearing highlights.
I listened to Savage’s show live and he is absolutely correct. Better yet, he is an equal opportunity talk show host; rarely will you hear him talk highly of Republican’s in Congress from the top on down unless they deserve it. He is more apt to lump all the top leaders in Congress together, both sides working to keep the other in power.
Like Rush Limbaugh, Savage is maligned by the liberal media who can’t stand a person who speaks freely when it is counter to the controlled message. The funny thing about the two of them is that many people who complain about them have never really sat down and listened to them. This is where we are today. Sad.
