Typical Howard. "Everyone is out to get me because I invented everything." He's not in the press, so he takes the opportunity to create his typical victim crap. This is why I stopped listening to him years ago. He was funny in the 80's in DC (before he was FIRED -- yes, fired -- he never mentions that, not even in his movie), but then it all became about him. It's old, Howard.

"We are so successful here at Sirius Satellite Radio"

From his show.
"When I sit in a meeting and they spell out that this is growing faster than cellphones"

"When IM adding 6000 subscribers a day"

6k a day just for Howard. That is impressive. Sirius is huge, so huge maybe the SEC should investigate the numbers being advertised.

The only reason Stern's web popularity has gone down is because he's no longer being fined for what he's doing! Pretty much all the media attention to Stern has been about how he pushes the line of obscenity in media, but now that he's on satellite, that's a moot point.

Wow howie, Big Biz is only after money? Pot calling the kettle black?
Ech Em ......

500 million dollar plus contract

What smear campaign?

There has been almost not talk of Howard's actual show for 9 months in the mainstream. There has been talk of sirius stock and his lawsuit.

Satellite is a small pond, time to realize that.

Ridiculous.

Hoooo-Hoooo Robin, I invented the first comment!!

Already dugg...hopefully it will get on the front page....

And then Martin Sheen went up the river and chopped him to pieces with a machete.

hey opie , while you're down there suckin off ,
its been two seconds since we haven't mentiond stern.
i mean we have five hours to kill , we cant say
ramone
got the aids
ALL THE TIME

by the way stern didn't invented everything.

just o&a's act.

and its always been about him.if you never thought it wasn't about him then your the dumbest mother fucker around.

Whether you like Howard or not, this argument is silly. The part left out of all this is that the numbers being tossed around by the original author are being taken from search engine user searches.

These numbers are hardly accurate for measuring a web sites popularity. I would call them more accurate for measuring a web sites increasing interest or "buzz".

For example, if a user searches for a particular web site in any search engine. Why would the users need to keep returning to the search engine to "re-find" the web site each time they wanted to return to the site.

I visit his web site almost daily and have it in my bookmarks and favorites list (no search engine required) ... and believe it or not I'm even smart enough to type in the address without the help of a search engine.

BOOKMARKS, FAVORITES AND A USER TYPING A WEB SITE ADDRESS THEY ALREADY KNOW INTO THE ADDRESS BAR ARE NOT MEASURED BY SEARCH ENGINES.

And let's be realistic .. I don't think even a person that hates Howard Stern needs Google or Yahoo to tell them the web site address (howardstern.com).

he never released this response to the media, so its not like he went out of his way to make his points to everyone. i thought no one listened to the show?

he went on this rant because he claimed he has figures to dis-count these. if everyone here heard the clips from the news shows talking about this, stern wouldn't look this 'ridiculous' to some.

He was funny in the 80's in DC (before he was FIRED -- yes, fired -- he never mentions that, not even in his movie)

Dude, he's said he was "fired from everywhere I've ever been" about a thousand times.

Re: Their act... I don't seem to recall O&A having a "token" cackling in a dunking booth.

But seriously now, I started listening to Howard when he was in afternoon drive on WNBC. I followed him to mornings on K-Rock and continued listening to him and following everything he did, up until about the middle of 2000.

I would listen to him in the morning and then to O&A in the afternoon. I never thought that O&A stole anything from Howard. Sure both shows were in the "shock" genre, and both were shows that were based on comedy, but there was a different flow to each. To me, O&A seemed less scripted and more "stream of consciousness" and "off-the-cuff." It was a freshness of the show that intrigued me.

I was personally looking for a nice NYC and syndicated radio war that Infinity could've made millions in advertising on. That never took place. I remember the days of O&A having to refer to Hoo Hoo as "Radio Edit" and when they couldn't even mention his name.

I lost a lot of respect for Howard then, and after the decline (in my opinion) of his show after his divorce and the loss of key show members, I lost interest in the show altogether.

To say that he invented the radio shock jock act, especially O&A's act is preposterous. The shows are completely different. It would be the equivalent of the Beatles or Led Zeppelin accusing today's artists of ripping them off. Everyone in a creative medium has people who influenced them. That is how it works. Howard didn't invent being shocking. He certainly perfected it and became larger than life and changed the way talk radio was done. But he is crazy to think that other people can't come along and do something in the same genre, and still be successful and funny without being accused of ripping him off. This does not apply to the local jocks in those tiny markets that blatantly steal from the major shows like Howard and O&A. Mancow was one of the biggest thieves out there. And we see where he is today (unemployed). O&A, like Howard, are original in the content that they provide their fans. I wonder if Lenny Bruce is screaming from his grave that Hoo hoo ripped him off, since Howard always said that Bruce was one of his major influences.

Believe me, I was one of Howard's loyal acolytes. I bought everything that he every did and considered him a god. But, he is sounding delusional right now and he's sounding truly pathetic. I could never go back to listening to him.

The CIA is out to get me! Black helicopters fly around me in the Hamptons all the time, Robin.

Yeah everyone is out to get you. Whatever.

It's pretty sad that the only way he can keep his name out there nowadays is to complain that he is being picked on instead of for what he's doing on his show.

Look up the names of the people that are writing the aricles Howard is questioning. They have PR ties. Get your heads out of your asses. Howard is right. Google is a really cool tool, use it sometimes.

On FM, Stern had the FCC as an enemy and he played the victim all the time. Now that he is on Satellite and can't use the FCC as an enemy he has to come up with a new one. So now he is saying that the "entire radio industry" is his enemy. Therefore the victim schtick continues. Rather than just saying "you know, I'm disappointed that more of my fans did not follow me to Sirius" and being honest, he has to be a victim and try to get his name in the news somehow. Although that part is working it is kinda sad and is making him look a little silly.

If "ripping off" Stern is going to a mic and doing funny and shocking things, he's got a lot of litigation ahead.

"icepik is gay.

Baggity is gay.
History Guy is gay.

Ok. now fuck, get AIDS and die.

hey look at me! im funny!

Ramone. "

Howard was rebutting that article that came out about his webhits, the media picked up on Howard's comments and bam! you guys get your undies all bunched up. Pathetic.

PS. i know he's not at 12 million listeners anymore, but i know and run into more people now that listen to Howard than before. I do find that kinda odd and cant quite figure that one out just yet.

Wow, people who notice this is BS are now gay? Oh right, anyone who doesn't worship Howard is gay. What a child. I hope you grow up to be a adult at some point "DodgerBlues" but I am not holding breath.

"Oh right, anyone who doesn't worship Howard is gay. "

Oh wow. I never thought about it that way... But you're right!!

So which do you prefer to be called? Pillow Biter? Colon Cowboy? The ever-popular Cock Smoker or it's distant cousin Cum Gurgler? Butthole Commando? Ass Bandit? Opie? Anthony?

Please just let us know...

"DC (before he was FIRED -- yes, fired -- he never mentions that, not even in his movie" {iband}

Hey Asshat, He talks about getting fired alot, we have all heard the story of him standing out front WNBC with his foot in A cast. Thay have even replayed the last show on WNBC on Sirius to show us what he was fired for.

So assbag, You can keep the bald face lies to youself.

Oh, yeah ass licker. It wasn't mentioned in the movie because the movie ended BEFORE that point.

Hoooo-Hoooo Robin, I invented the first comment!!

Stern: O&A say I invented everything, I didn't event everything, I just invented their act.

don't forget stick-lickers, hole-punchers, 'give me the poo-rod', mr. garrison, put your tussel in my mussel, brown your bag, and dig for snickers.

Interesting. I already disputed that "never mentions getting fired" comment, but it wasn't posted.

And speaking of complexes...

I think he said it tounge in cheek personally.

Ryan, I honestly don't know why you post this stuff. It's just bait for O&A trolls to comment.

Once again, sternfan73 makes it about O&A.

You were the FIRST one to mention the other show, dude. You're quickly becoming the Stern-fan version of 'Ramone'...

if you look 3 posts up before mine you will see
a hoo hoo.since someone brought up that wonderful phrase , it was only fitting to bring other hosts.i would have to be very sad to be a stern fan version of ramone.

Poor Howard. Poor $610 Million Howard.

Somehow, he just doesn't seem as pitiful as he is trying to sound...

If hoo hoo invented Opie & Anthony's act, then his (Howard's) act was invented by Steve Dahl and the other great jock of the 70-80's who never got credit they deserved.

/who's ripping who off
//everyone steals in radio
///at least O&A made hoo hoo's act listenable and funny
////hoo hoo shoulda ended it in the late 80's...

Its his little mission, very little mission. Stern fan? Are you proud of making this site a shit hole? Are you? I heard from someone that knows someone that saw your thread on sfn. He said it was great

http://www.sternfannetwork.com/forum/showthread.php?s=b4584a9e2c5f5f994586e46422db7b69&threadid=168198

still gay.

"Put your Tussel in My Mussel"

LOL. That's a good one...

1.) Howard is an attention hound... always has been

2.) The only thing he had going for him in the past was shock value... he's just not that shocking anymore... the world has moved on and with that said...

3.) Howard who?

To me, it's just a sign that Stern can't stand not having an enemy. If it can't be the FCC, it'll be "big business" conspiring against him.

I'd have more respect for the show if he realized that he's starting over, in a lot of ways, and needs a newer act now. But it really appears that he hasn't.

"PS. i know he's not at 12 million listeners anymore, but i know and run into more people now that listen to Howard than before. I do find that kinda odd and cant quite figure that one out just yet."

No doubt. "Siruisly" though, Howard will never get the audience back he once had, unless of course, at the end of his contract, he moves back to terrestrial radio.

Any bets?

what can i say.it wasn't a mission. it just happend.
i put that post up in o&a forum and people started talking about beer league.
so i thought i would post it up on SFN .it was dead
until you posted up the link here.dumbass.

Turning this site into shit.

Stern can claim all the subscribers at Sirius are there for him till his wig falls off. That just proves that Sirius is shallow to me. Something i am not looking for in a radio company since leaving FM. Thank you.

Clearly, as others are saying, Howard is lying again because he knows poor individuals like Sternfucker73 will swallow anything he says. Yes if Howard says it, then by God it's gotta be true. Pathetic. Howard doesn't even know the truth anymore, he's been lying to his fans for years and I am so fucking glad O&A are there to keep him honest.

Are you proud of making this site a shit hole?

Mr. Pot meet Mr. Kettle

just listend to your bbboys
who fucking suck by the way
ramble on for 78 minutes on howard stern , a person
that according to o&a no one cares about.
to all o&a fans i'm happy that you got to listen to part of the greatest radio show ever on friday but enough about the howard stern show.

yeah your bbboys dont talk that much about howard.

I wonder why they called it Free FM if they weren't threatened?

I just listened again and it turns out that Howard Stern actually is an old unfunny hack who is completely detached from his audience, or any audience, and also Sirius sucks. And I'm gay.

There, THAT IS THE ?. Why keep talking about Howard if he dont mater? Tusel? If you really thought he didn't matter you wouldn't care what he said about your bboys(gay). If Howard was responding to your gay boys talking about him on letterman for less then 5 mins why would thay talk about him for 78 min if he didn't matter. I for one would like to thank you for the free ads. DLR never talked this much about Howard.

Tom C., calling Stern out is consistent with O&A's past dealing with the former KOAM when he speaks ill of them or makes preposterous claims. The only time this was not the case, was when Howie had them silenced back in the WNEW days. It is hard for me to take Howie seriously as a proponent of free speech, when he has O&A muzzled or "put in jail." as he confirmed to Hannity. He should be ashamed of himself. In addition, anyone who believes the comment he made that HIS Sirius show is growing faster than cell phones,is drinking the Koolaid. I'm sure he will come up with some form of Howie Math that zombies such as you and that master of the english language, sternfan73, will believe; but really. Also, I wouldn't mind if O&A devoted an entire show to calling out Howie as being a hypocrite and a cartoon of himself (very young GF, house in the Hamptons, too important to attend Gary's father's funeral, etc.). It makes this former Stern fan laugh really hard. Baba Booey to you all.

now that O&A are in 22 markets and on satellite radio i hope they continue to bash Howard so every can see what a fraud he is.

hoo hoo sucks. o and a are much more talented and actually care about their fans. Hoo hoo is just out to make money. The bbboys talk about hoo hoo because we want everyone to know how much of a hypocrite he is. the boys are actually honest never lie to their fans. that is why we always win in the end.

Take a pill, Howard! Or...quit taking those pills, Howard!

There is nothing like coming to PestCast... I mean Orbitcast... to hear the latest is satellite radio news.

Wait... a Howard Stern story? OMG, there is more "Stern sucks, Stern is old news, Hoo hoo hoo, I invented blah blah blah, tell'em Fred or Tell'em Robin" babble?

I am shocked!

[/sarcasm]

There is nothing like seeing the Ophelia and Andrea zombies repeat the same stuff over and over and over.

I forgot... the original line.. RAMONE....

Come on guys, can't you come up with new schtick?

I care when he talks about my bbbboys cause thats the time O&A talk about him (they only talk about stern when he is in the news or he talks about them). Them making fun of him and calling him out for being an asshat makes for some awesome radio.

the cell phone coment was taken out of context.they were comparing cell phones when they started, not now.

howard didn't go to garys dads service because when they were getting ready is when she had her fall and hurt her leg.your story about the polo match was written by someone who has love me daddy issues with stern.
i dont take him seriously
i take him honestly.

your bbboys should start thinking about those ratings and less on what stern does because the next rattings book is comming out and they cant really blame DLR this time.

"O&A say I invented everything. I didn't invent everything...JUST THEIR ACT."

"O&A say I invented everything. I didn't invent everything.... JUST THEIR ACT"

HaHaHaHa!

"O&A say I invented everything. I didn't invent everything...JUST THEIR ACT."

Re-quoted for truth.

Sirius and Howie Stern are perfect together.

Sirius got a splash of publicity but they are now so linked to Howie that adults won't want to subscribe to the "Stern Station"

Howie got more money than God, but his listenership went down 90%. Noone talks about him. He's fading, taking only to the 10% of losers dumb enough to pay $13 a month to listen to fart jokes.

"O&A say I invented everything. I didn't invent everything...JUST THEIR ACT."

haha I love it!

tussell = fagdick?

According to a news article, the NY POST has officially released John M, the guy who slandered and made up shit on Howard. They noticed the conflict of interest.
