Parents of children with autism came together as they continue to call for his firing.

The protesters gathered in front of the KNEW radio station office in San Francisco on Sunday.

This comes after both KNEW and Talk Radio Network made the decision to keep Michael Savage on the air.

Savage has not apologized for his remarks to date, which talked about autistic children in a very negative light.

He stated that autism was being over-diagnosed, and blamed parents for the problems. He referred to the situation by using words such as “moron” and “idiot” when talking about autistic children.

There is no decision as of yet as to what the radio station will do, b ut many have not stopped carrying Savage’s syndicated radio show.

Advertisers, on the other hand, are not being so kind to Savage, as they keep pulling out one by one.
