Truthfully, they are both foul-mouthed losers.
Revenge is tasty fruit that is sweetest when savored over a long time. Just be careful Howard, public opinion is moved in minutes by whims. I am glad someone has the memory to castigate the author of the Tawana Brawley hate episode, I'm sure more sh_t will fly before this storm is over.
Like I value anything that that Ho-ward stern says. it takes one (piece of trash) to know one. so ho-ward is an expert on the above matter. but this is what the world likes nowadays, imus and springer and stern and stern and the ho anna nicole smith who did nothing to make the world a better place. while your at it what use is jesse jackazz or not so sharp ton. I will take my dog over the whole lot of the above refuse.....
Sharpton and Jackson are jokes. I pity the fool that thinks either of these monkeys have mo-jo.
come come now, how can you insult monkeys like that....
Both Imus and tern have been absolutely irrelevant for years. And Sharpton is one of the foremost racists in the USA.
How exactly do you measure relevance? you can dislike the content, but Howard Stern still exerts great influence over many many people.
First, at the very least he has greatly increased the pace of adoption of Satellite radio. He has millions of listeners as evidenced by his ability to impact topics that have nothing to do with the show - for example the current American Idol.
You can call him foul mouth, you can dislike his show but Howard Stern is far from irrelevant.
When people like Howard Stern and Imus are so popular - what does that say about the American public!!! Rush 'Lumpbaugh' and Bill O'Reilly come in close behind. They all are egotistical maniacs, so in love with their own voices they can't begin to understand intelligence if it hit them in their ugly faces!!!!
Stern has million's of listeners? No way! Back in the day he did, but no one went with him to Sirius. Look at their growth before and after he joined. It's pretty much the same with XM killing them 2 to 1 and O&A killing boner nose.
Right O and A are killing Stern? Those two are bigger losers than Sanjaya. You live in a fantasy world.
Imus is a fossil. Hope he's flushed down the sewer.
Sirius is buying XM you loser. O and A will be the first to go if the deal goes through. Imus is done in radio for sure.
I'd never heard of Imus before this mess, I've never listened to Stern, and I've never seen a dead horse beaten quite as badly as this so-called Rutgers flap. Quit whining already. Sheesh.
Hey Baba
It's interesting that you compare O&A to Sanjaya since they're still on terrestrial radio as well as XM, and Sanjaya is still on American Idol.
Where's boner nose? Oh that's right, on the little doggie company Sirius who was ruined by Stern and his ridiculous salary with his 600,000 or so listeners. And according to Stern, he's responsible for Sanjaya still being there....hmm. So what's your point?
O+A Like Sanjaya are jokes who have Howard Stern to thank for their success (though with clones O+A, I use that word loosely). First, they get kicked off terrestrial for their dopey catholic church sex stunt, then resurface on XM and fail to gain any audience comparative to their listener base on the station they were on. Then sell out the few fans they do have-The O+Gay Army-by going back to free radio to do 3/5 of their show. Stern is a legend in radio, whether you like him or not. He made radio something other than a forum for cartoon-like cookie cutter top 40 disc jockeys and button down narcoleptic political windbags spewing their partys' agenda. O+Gay won't ever influence anyone outside of two jerk-offs who want to have sex in a church, and if the Sirius/XM merger is approved by the Feds, its game over for free radio. Then again, with the FCC silencing any semblence of provocative and controversial talk on the radio and television, free radio is already in the bottom of the ninth with two outs and no one on base.
Stern does have millions of fans. Have you checked the subscription numbers sense he signed up with SIRIUS. Remember, its SIRIUS trying to buy XM, not xm buying sirius. Who thought that would ever happen. Ever sense Howard came to SIRIUS, they've beat xm every quarter on subscription totals. Thats a big deal.....Oh, and Imus is horrible radio. And just the fact that we're talking about satellite radio right now says alot about the Stern effect.
Howard Stern is wrong about Imus not being funny because like I've said a thousand times before-Racism is hilarious and Howard Stern knows this from first hand experience.Sexism is almost as funny.
imus is a hero! congrats to him for calling it like it is. ugly, monkey, nappy headed hos!
Imus and Stern should date and do each other, they both lick and are both just plain and simple stupid.
Stern is right. What Imus did was stupid and he should be fired. But Sharpton is a waste of skin too. All he does is dump gasoline on a fire that will never burn out. He's not out to help anyone. NBC Universal did the world one favor already. Now Sharpton needs to be silenced too.
Viva Stern!
