Stern debuts on satellite radio and returns to the bad old days, before the FCC got on his case. But is the show worth $13 a month?
  • Do your button shoes feel a little tight this morning..?

    Of COURSE people of a good stripe don't listen to Howard Stern, everyone KNOWS that.

    ALL he has to offer is filth! It's just filth!!

    Until you listen. And you hear a modern-day incarnation of Groucho Marx. And you realize that you quite thoroughly enjoy four hours a day of entertainment, news and bullshit. Without the endless shit-fake-bastard patina that covers everyone and everything else in the entertainment world.

    $12 a month? A non-issue.

    Actually that much money is more than worth it to see lobbyists pull the strings of Congress to try and get them to allow the FCC to regulate satellite radio, Constitution and Bill of Rights be damned.

    Where else but the Howard Stern show could you ever hear the simple truth that the religious right is full of shit? Expressed just that way?

    It says something that millions of listeners have sought the refuge of satellite radio to keep the government out of their choice of entertainment. Fuck the FCC. Hard. With a diseased penis.
