Listening to what this man said over the radio just got me riled up, Thought I'd pass it on in case anyone else would like to comment to his sponsors on what he said. There's a link that takes you right to a website where you can just fill out a few things and click and the emails will be sent to him, his station and it's sponsors.

Talk Radio's Savage Trashes Individuals With Autism / Act Now To Show His Conduct Is Not Acceptable!

Savage Calls Children With Autism "Brats" and Autism a "Scam"

Take Action!

Use the Autism Action Network to Tell Savage's Broadcasters and Sponsors What You Think of Savage and His Offensive Remarks

OFFENSIVE!

That's What We Call The Words of Trash Radio Host Savage

(t/n Weiner)

Take Action Against Savage's Remarks!

"Idiot" "brat" "moron"

These are just a few terms Savage used to describe children with Autism on his radio program. He went on to say autism, a lifelong debilitating disorder that leaves many children without the ability to speak and in constant pain, was a "fraud" and a "racket" perpetrated by inept parents.

Do not permit Savage's offensive statements to go unchallenged. Savage and his broadcasting syndicators must be held accountable for his hateful and ignorant tirade. Contact his sponsors and demand that they withdraw their support. Most reasonable people, and most for-profit corporations, do not want to be identified as oppressors of the disabled. Your words will have great impact and will make the choice clear for them.

Here is a sample message you can use:

Dear Savage Sponsor or Supporter:We have learned that your company sponsors or supports Savage's radio program.On a recent program, he attacked children with autism, claiming that autism was a fraud and a scam. He went on to say:"I'll tell you what autism is. In 99 percent of the cases, it's a brat who hasn't been told to cut the act out. That's what autism is."

Savage also used offensive terms to describe autistic children, such as "idiots", "morons" and more.

We parents and family members of an individual with autism will not tolerate Savage's offensive and unacceptable conduct. We respectfully request that your company withdraws their advertising dollars from his programs and, if you broadcast or syndicate his radio show, that you dismiss him immediately.

Autism affects 1 in 150 children in the USA. Each of those children has a circle of family, friends and supporters who share the concerns of the child. We would say that there are likely 10 people for every child with autism who shares that child's concerns.When you consider this request, please consider that as many as 1 in 15 Americans will be watching your decision and how you react will have a powerful impact on their opinion of your company.

We hope and trust that you will do the right thing.

Respectfully,

The Autism Action Network
