    Howard Stern yanked from more stations

    Howard Stern says he's been pulled off four radio stations for using the "s" word.

    The word is "satellite" -- as in satellite radio.

    The shock-jock claims Citadel Broadcasting yanked him from stations in Michigan, New York, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island because he was talking too much about his upcoming switch to Sirius Satellite Radio.

    An open letter posted on Stern's Web site says it's not clear if the decision is permanent.

    Citadel is not commenting.

    Stern will begin with Sirius in January 2006.

    Stern Yanked From Four Stations For 'S' Word?
    Satellite radio won't have to kill FM if they keep shooting themselves in the feet.

              i believe he's still under contract, lol. I think if he just quit and started on SIRIUS right away there would be huge lawsuits.

                He did ask to be released from his contract early but they refused.

                It's better this way, he has a whole year to rally his loyal listeners into Sirius subscriptions .

                        I always thought XM was the current leader, you'd think they would have ponied up and got Stern instead of Sirius. This will hurt them.

                                I guess the fm stations dont care about throwing away money. Howard is the shit and his listeners will follow him to sirius.
