Talk Show Host Michael Savage Banned From UK For "Fomenting Hatred" And Savage Is Considering Legal Action In Response

WND reports that "talk radio host Michael Savage is considering legal action against Britain's top homeland security official after she released today a list grouping him with terrorists and neo-Nazi murderers banned from entry because the government believes their views might provoke violence... Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said she decided to publicize the list of 16 people banned since October to show the type of behavior Britain will not tolerate, according to U.K. news reports... Savage's immediate reaction upon hearing the news was typically wry. 'Darn! And I was just planning a trip to England for their superior dental work and cuisin,' he recalled thinking."

"Then it sank in," he told WND, "and I said, 'She said this is the kind of behavior we won't tolerate? She's linking me with mass murderers who are in prison for killing Jewish children on buses? For my speech? The country where the Magna Carta was created?'"

WND further quotes Savage as saying he wants top First Amendment attorneys to represent him "in a major international case."

"I want to sue the British home secretary for defamation," he said, "for linking me up with murderers because of my opinions, my writings, my speaking – none of which have advocated any violence, ever."

Here is some of what Michael Savage had to say today on his radio show in response:
