Howard Stern - RIP Brother!

10-14-2008, 02:44 PM

So Howard Stern died a slow and miserable death when he left the airwaves and went to satellite radio. He used to have 20 million listeners and growing and now he has 2 million. The people that gave him the $500 million are basically fucked because they will never make that money back.

Howard went from George Clooney, Johnny Depp, Kiera Knightly, Julia Roberts, Madonna, etc to having the likes of Hulk Hogan and Kathy Griffin (who?) on his show now... What an idiot... No one cares about that loser anymore...

Sure he has money... But he can't get into the posh clubs to spend it because he is a loser like Tara Reed.

Rest In Peace, Howard. Your celebrity has died!

Is this based on the mostly false information that was printed in the LA Times today about him? He actually discussed it on his show... something about the LA times is owned by a company who is in pursuit to acquire 50 or so radio channels and thus this story was printed to bash satellite. I dunno, something like that.

His show started to suck near the end. He mentioned how at one point, over half his show was commercials.

I personally like his satellite show better. They are more open to do whatever they want and don't have to worry about censorship.

Satellite also has lower subscription numbers because the government really fucked them over on the merger because they were all bought and paid for by the non-satellite companies.

BTW the show had Sarah Silverman on today and Christian Slater yesterday, Tom Arnold like a week ago, etc etc. Trust me, unless this is your own personal opinion and not that of a heavily biased 3rd party, and you listen to the show regularly, I'm going to have to say you're wrong.

Well fuck it... I'll go out on a limb and agree with ya buddy. I used to listen to him like 10 years ago. We used to turn the radio on in the morning and listen until he was done. Every day for years.. Now... he's dead to me.

That satelite deal was bad from the beginning. Only a moron would pay for radio waves.

Hahaha, not a bad point.

Maybe I just like him because I'll take talk radio allllllllll day over the music they play on most of these channels.

BTW I think someone from here sponsored a few spots on Howard 100/101 a little bit back, wonder how that went for em. I wanna say it was Vegas Ken.

Rest In Peace, Howard. Your celebrity has died!

yes, his listener base has deff been cut. He isnt as funny as he used to be. But how much shit can you possibly talk for 30 years without it dying. But to say he cant get into posh clubs because he is like tara reid is pretty retarded. He just got married in Le Cirque, which is the hottest restaurant in NYC. The likes of Joan Rivers, Billy Joel, and Donald Trump were there. So he is obviously well respected by many. Dont be mad he didnt invite you.

Jay Leno and David Letterman have Hulk Hogan and Kathy Griffin on. They must be hasbeen's as well.

I actually listen to Ellis more than I listen to Howard, even though Ellis gets pretty annoying with the down under accent saying "No what I mean" alot

wish they would get Kidd Chris on Sirius already, now that guy is entertaining

I admit I am a big fan of his so my thoughts might be a little biased. When he went to Sirius Satellite they had been in business around 3 years and had around 900,000 subscribers. Two years later they had around 8 million and they bought XM who has around 9 million subscribers. The combined companies give them around 17 million subscribers. The only subscription based company in the US with more subscribers is Comcast.

They say he has around 5-9 million listeners a day. There are no ratings for sattelite, but most of the people that joined after he started joined for him and they have ways of estimating how many listeners they have. When all the hardware is switched over and the XM people can listen to him that number could double.

if you figure 8 million listeners @ $12 a month that is around 96 million a month in revenue not counting the 9 million subscribers from XM. Mel Karmizan the CEO of Sirius has said that they have already recouped their investment in Howard. He may not have as many A list celebs on his show, but if you listed daily before he only had 1-2 big name people a month on his old show and he seems to have around the same now.

To me the show now is better than it has been in years. Since it is uncensored it is funnier and I still like most of the guests they have. Personally I would rather have them have some Whack Packer or some C or D list celeb that is going to be an honest, good guest than some A lister who is going to recite the same bullshit they tell everyone else that interviews them.

Howard is far from dead.

I don't listen and I don't know any numbers... but having 2 million paying listeners over 20 million nonpaying listeners sounds like a better deal to me.

Even if Howard did not make his salary back for the radio... which it sounds like he did... I would bet that he made a great loss leader.

None of you are going out on a limb. There was a huge article about it today that is basically this thread and was picked up by a bunch of big websites and local television stations.

I'm assuming the thread starter is now trying to take credit the observations made by big media?

only a moron would pay for internet porn?
i think there is a big similarity here..
i consider Howard Stern quality entertainment, something i would pay for..but when it came time to install the damn thing in my car and subscribe, i too lost interest in Howard.
I would listen to his show in a heartbeat if he was on my dial..

At least post your own original thoughts, man. That article was full of shit and designed to bash Howard. I think that Howard is the greatest entertainer in the history of entertainment. His career on radio is going on 30+ years, plus tv for almost fifteen years, who else can claim that. I still listen every day and enjoy the show.
