Michael Weiner a/k/a Michael “Savage,” a nationally syndicated conservative commentator, claimed that autism is “[a] fraud, a racket. … 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. That’s what autism is.” He also said that autistic kids needed fathers to tell them to stop acting “like a moron” and that greedy doctors and drug companies were overdiagnosing autism.

What a tool.
