The Savage Weiner gets the boot...again!

Remember when the Savage Weiner couldn't keep his big mouth shut, and said on MSNBC, "I hope you get AIDS and die," and got his sorry ass fired?

Well, he got his ass kicked out the door again, for another anti-gay slur:

Savage Goes Down in Flames

Just two days after announcing they were representing him, CAA has given homophobic radio host Michael Savage the ax! Adios, hater!

As TMZ earlier reported, on the heels of being signed to the high-profile talent agency, Savage made disparaging and homophobic remarks aimed at fellow CAA client Melissa Etheridge. Well, that didn't fly at the agency, because, according to Planet Gossip's Marc Malkin, CAA is no longer repping the conservative hate-monger -- and has unceremoniously dropped him from their client list!

4. And He Has More Than 2 Million Hits On His Website

Encouraging him to run for President.

Oh, God, please make it come true!!!

10. President?!....Savage for president?!!........Hahahahaha

Are his fans really that delusional?
The absurdity of such a notion leads me to hope that maybe the pleas have been repeated by satirist bloggers playing an inside joke.

I appreciate the tip as although I have the stomach to visit sites from Free Republic to Little Green Footballs, a trip through Savages page may lead to a stroke.

Do Nazis call leaders a "president" now?

Hahaha...Thanx again for the laugh

3. Can't fathom why CAA would take on Weiner in the first place

But it didn't take them long to show him the door, which is good on CAA. I don't think Weiner has the kind of star-power pull that would result in big commissions for CAA, and what is there in his persona that could be marketed so they could generate more bookings? Freeper conventions, Klan rallies and other get-togethers that could be held in a phone booth are hardly big paying gigs.

6. Money

why else? :shrug: These people usually don't care who they represent as long as they bring in the cash. Etheridge is a little more high profile than the savage weiner (hard to believe, isn't it? :eyes: ) so I imagine it was an economic decision on their part: lose Etheridge or gain a savage weiner. :rofl:

They made the correct decision.

5. What does "tmz" stand for?

I know - dumb question. But I could't find it on the site and have been wondering. Thx.

7. CAA isn't that the talent agency Michael Orvitz started, then left to

go on his own many years back?

I think that's what "Jerry McGuire" was very loosely based on.
