Why does Savage need a "Legal Defense Fund" when he initiated the lawsuit against CAIR? What is he defending?

Question

He's a millionaire and no one sued him; he's not facing criminal charges. Why then does he need his listeners to contribute to his "Legal Defense Fund"?

Answer 1

Intellectual property rights. C.A.I.R. used copyrighted material in their attempt to silence him.

Edit

All material used on his(and all broadcasts) are protected by copyrights, and can not be used by others without prior consent

Answer 2

Savage has a frivolous lawsuit, he doesn't want to spend his own money on a suit that will get tossed.

Answer 3

His copywritten material falls under fair use. Oops!
