While Savage won his case, in the end, will he have won? He will be off the air for an extended period of time each day he is gone is another day without income and losing his listeners.
With the competition of talk radio, his fans will go somewhere. In Las Vegas, they may go to Neal Bortz on AM 670 for the time being, until Bortz retires in January. They may also go to Mike Huckabee on 790. Unless KDWN picks up another national talker quickly, they will be hurt because all of Savage's substitutes pretty much sucked. If I were a liberal, I would be lobbying KDWN for a liberal talk show host. Does Ed Schultz still have his radio show?
In the end, i think the real loser will be Michael Savage- if he gets back into talk radio, he will have to build up his audience again and he may not want to do that. The other losers will be the local affiliates who lost a a talk show host who brought in ratings with no notice.
The winners in this case right now will be liberals who have hated him from Day 1
