Those Who Would Think to Restrict Free Speech Please Note...

Michael Savage takes down a British home secretary.. who's next?

quote:
British Home Secretary Jacqui Smith will resign, according to the London Telegraph. Her ban of San Francisco talk show host Michael Savage contributed to her downfall. World News Daily notes a BBC radio program today featuring Michael Savage, a barrage of callers reflected public anger over Smith's surprising decision last month to ban the popular American talk host from entry into the United Kingdom along with murderers and terrorists.

…Yesterday, Savage said that Media Matters funded in part by George Soros, provided clips to Smith. They were taken out of context. Many believe that the attack on Savage was part of a strategy of groups like Media Matters to impose strict regulation of talk radio in the U.S.

That strategy has now backfired miserably. Not only is Savage vindicated, but the FCC and Congress will now have a major battle on their hands if Savage and his colleagues on talk radio are restricted. Worse for the Left, Michael Savage is now an international star with callers from outside the country.
