I was just reading an article on autism that is about public consideration. It goes on to talk about our impatience as a society for loud children and then it had this lovely little comment by talk radio guy Michael Savage. I;v never liked him much, but this is so OTT:

Syndicated radio talk show host Michael Savage added to the furor last month when he charged that doctors and drug companies are overdiagnosing autism, and said, “I’ll tell you what autism is: In 99 percent of the cases, it’s a brat who hasn’t been told to cut the act out.” Several major companies pulled their advertising from Savage’s show.

I heard about that. He got pulled from our local talk radio station because of it. I don't think he has any idea what autism is, but then again he doesn't know what he's talking about the majority of the time.
