Jenny McCarthy Blasts Michael Savage For Autism Attack

Michael Savage: You've been served. Jenny McCarthy is calling the shock jock out for his inflammatory remarks on autism.

“I’ll tell you what autism is — it’s a brat that hasn’t been told to cut the act out,” Savage said two weeks ago. McCarthy, whose son Evan is autistic, was infuriated by Savage's words and is speaking out now.

“You know, I immediately get the news the second anything happens. I read it and had to sit down and kind of breathe a little bit,” McCarthy said. “The media drove me crazy that day wanting comments and I didn’t want to give any more attention to that jerk.

“It’s really about showboating ignorance really,” she said. “I kind of took the high road and kept talking about healing, prevention."

In fact, McCarthy invited Savage to a smackdown to teach him a lesson. “And if he would like, (he can) join me in the ring sometime on the WWE. I’ll show you what I really think." McCarthy was referring to her appearance last night with John Cena on Saturday Night's Main Event, in which she teamed up with the WWE to raise awareness of autism.

I don't think Savage had the balls to show up, but he's taken some blows in other ways: advertisers pulled ads from his popular radio show and there have been demands for his termination.

Green Our Vaccines: Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy Get Political

Who says it ain't easy bein' green? Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy flexed their political muscles today as they marched on Washington in support of Green Our Vaccines, an organization that seeks to raise awareness about toxins in childhood vaccines.

Carrey led 8,500 people through the streets of Washington, D.C., Wednesday, along with his daughter Jane and McCarthy and her son Evan. Of Evan, Carrey said, "He taught me how to love. And without Evan I might never have seen the greatness of Jenny's spirit."

Carrey was equally gushing about girlfriend McCarthy when he spoke to the families, lawmakers and other activists that had gathered for the rally, saying that she was "the source of all that is good" in his life.

Wow - political activism and public declarations of love all in the same day. Celebrities really are more productive than the rest of us. I only managed to shower and go to Starbucks today.
