The contentious topics procedure applies to this article. This article relates to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people.

Radio

The Radio section paragraph begins:

"In mid 2006, Savage had 8–10 million listeners per week, which made his show the third most widely heard broadcast in the United States at that time."

The following paragraph gives the same number of listeners as in 2006:

"By 2009, The Savage Nation had an audience of 8 to 10 million listeners on 400 stations across the United States, making it the second most listened-to radio talk show in the country at the time."

One of these would seem to be in error. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrpeterkins (talk • contribs)

GA concerns

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria. Some of my concerns are listed below:

There is a "neutrality concerns" orange banner in the article, which should be resolved.
There are uncited passages throughout the article, including whole paragraphs.

Is anyone interested in addressing these concerns, or should this go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 05:10, 1 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

There is an orange "Criticism NPOV" banner at the top of the article. There is also uncited text, and very long sections that should be broken up with level 3 headings or reformatted. Z1720 (talk) 02:07, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
