Segments of the interview were aired on the news Friday, July 18. child-autism-parent-cafe.com

From: New York State Advocacy Central for Autism
Mike Savage probably thinks the shock value of what he said will enhance his place in the lore of conservative talk radio. He probably figures he will make more money as a result of his comments. We should not let him become even more wealthy by stepping on the hearts of our disabled children.
We can hit him, his advertisers and investors in the pocketbook, the only place he seems to understand or care about.

NY: All New Vaccine Mandates Squashed
Parents are Powerful
From A-CHAMP:
New York Assembly Bill A 10942, the "worst vaccine bill ever" and the mandatory meningococcal vaccine bill are dead. And they were killed by parents who aren't going to let pharma kick them around anymore.
Another vaccine bill that would have allowed minors to get vaccines for sexually-transmitted diseases without parents permission or knowledge went down to defeat when the Assembly Health committee refused to even consider it.
This represents the fourth defeat in a row, with no wins, for the vaccine industry in New York, last year an mandatory HPV bill was killed.
