Savage’s comments have again been taken out of context. Look on his website and he has links to most of his various discussions of the condition, including an interview with a leading psychiatrist in the field. Don’t play into Media Matters’ tricks by making Savage the bad guy- Al Quaeda is the bad guy. Don’t forget that, and fight for free speech.

He said 99% of all cases of autism are a fraud. He does the right to free speech and we should all exercise our rights and denounce his lunacy.
