irrelivent is that the word
its just a rumour.

Hey.. wait one minuite.. Mel has been quoted as to saying he would NEVER dilute Sirius's Exclusive content. So.... What Gives?

I thought Howard did not want to go back to terestrial EVER.

never happen---rumors

and sirius buying xm too lol

Do they even understand the history between Farid and Howard?

My guess is no otherwise this deal would've been shot out of the water before it appeared in any publication related to radio.

Only a rumor indeed.

It would never happen. Howard said he would never return to terrestrial radio. Nevermind the fact that he'd be following in O&A's footsteps, which i think even the average Stern fan would know he would never do.

I laffed. Just as much as i did at him running for President.

Don't forget that all of these guys have huge egos. It's basically a requirement - you need to believe that you're so interesting that millions of people will want to follow your life and listen to what you have to say.

Satellite is a smaller audience, and no matter what he says, he probably does miss having the huge audience. To say nothing of the press (=> ego boost) he'd receive if he did return.

Hoo hoo, I invented going back to terrestrial radio, Robin. I'm bigger than cell phones!

Seriously though, I don't see this happening.

Rumor.

But keep in mind that Mel has a $600 million+ [quickly] wasting asset that is not generating a return at this point.

Even though Stern has been clear he could not do a "quality" show on terrestrial, there may be no choice -- Sirius cannot afford to allow that asset to evaporate into thin air and terrestrial would love to have him back.

How would Stern spin the sellout? Can't wait to hear it.

A mega-deal involving Farid Suleman!?! This is absolute horseshit of a rumor. Get back to drumming up details on the release of the Stiletto rather than give any time to typing up this crap.

Howard WOULD do it becuase as has been said, egos in that industry are huge and need that size of audience, and no matter how much he denies that he cares what O&A have done, he does, or at least the Stern Machine does.

He does not like being second fiddle to anyone... Part of the mind set of these guys.

How will he justify the hours of tape where he says he would NEVER do terrestrial again?

"Satellite, Satellite of love"

If he did do it, it would only prove once and for all what a colossal hypocritical idiot he really is.

Howard has said many times that he "would NEVER go back" to regular radio. His fans said that O&A sold out, must be desperate and proves that they have failed on satellite.

I would LOVE to hear how Howard would spin this if it is true.

Not a chance, Sirius has nothing to gain by this. It will be profitable by itself in the next 4 years.

Industry Tabloids are as bad as Star and OK!

Well it all comes full circle... This would mean that Howard has FAILED on satellite if he has to come back to regular radio. Right? Remember that's what everyone said about O&A. It's gotta be buggin' the shit out of Howie that he is now irrelevant.

I just firgured it out - sternfan's hobby is composing haikus!

That would be 'figured'. I stink.

Another BS rumor. There seems to be a great deal of this type of BS lately. Someone from the SEC should look into some of these rumors. Briefing.com should be number one on the list. They distributed the Sirius/Apple rumor on at least two separate occasions. Flycrap on the wall is another. These sites feed BS all day to day traders to try and move the stock price.

what if its not about stern going to regular radio but someone from
the radio comming to satelite.abc radio has mark and brian maybe they are trying to move mark and brian and put o/a there.
citadel would pay sirius and stern for them to put someone on the air. its not too far fetch.

Won't happen.

he once said:

"FM is the worst, we would never go back!"

Oh wait, that wasn't him...wait who said this? oh yeah...some guys who can't beat Imus.

Corrrrrrection- they said they would never *exclusively* go back to FM.

Put this in the BS rumor pile. :)

I am sure if this was to happen, this site will be filled with people who will say that this is a pretty good move.

Now that I think further about this, it is not true. It is a rumor floated to put Stern back in the news since he was so angry over the reports of Google searches and interest in him is down.

He is simply playing the media so that he can stay in the headlines. And for that part of it, have to admit, that sh** works for him, doesn't it?

IF ANYTHING, this is a deal for the classic content or Howard has picked someone to take on O&A in mornings. It would be perfect if the classic tapes beat their asses!

I guess i'll be the first stern fan here to say that howard can shove it all the way up his ass if he goes to testical. i own stock in this bitch, i want that fucker exclusively. i don't think he will.

pete, you shouldn't have corrected yourself, firgured is actually pretty damn funny, and tussel, your weird brother

Im weird? You just dont get my comment. And you would be pissed because you own stock? Think of the money Sirius would make if this happened. And the exposure to his show on Satellite. Its a great deal, that wont happen. Well, it could. Mel loves money.

sattelite of love, your fuckin weird. people know about howard, they don't need another watered down censored shit hole that your fags seeped into.

so since many people think that O&A's return to terrestrial meant they were failing on XM, so wouldn't Howard's return to terrestrial mean that he's failing on Sirius, especially after all the talk about how successful he's supposedly being on Sirius not to mention all the time he spent trashing terrestrial?

this all sounds like Howard desperately trying to stay in the headlines in any way possible, either by starting more fake rumors or claiming he's a victim of something. this rumor will likely prove to be false, then six months from now he'll start yet another groundless rumor that'll prove false or he'll find some other villain to claim he's the victim of. how predictable. he's become The Boy Who Cried Wolf.

fake rumors? whats a fake rumor.

Him running for President of the United States of America is a rumor.... Fake? Well he said he was interested.

Remember Howies little rant about a Smear Campaign set up by all of radio to provide proof he is slipping? He thinks that is a fake rumor. A rumor put out that is in no way true. Out to just "smear" his name.

Man..the running for president thing was a Joke. Atleast do a little research.

Research? About the Stern Show? I cant hear him, how could i do research? Im going off this.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VuVW5JvzNY

Excuse me if i took what he was saying as anything more than a joke.

If Howie goes back to terrestrial, does his Fridays off and 4 months vacation time follow through there too?

Stupid Stern Zombie Faggots.

Pretty bad when the rumor mongers don't even believe it. This is just retarded

the smear campaign was a story , someones opinion. it wasn't a rumor.

"Excuse me if i took what he was saying as anything more than a joke."

No need, it is a comedy show. Alot of jokes are said. But for someone so "irrelevent," you do seem to care quite a bit.

And again, he isnt running for president.

Oh by the way, How come no one tries to rebuke this gem:

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

Oh yeah, ITS NOT A RUMOR! ITS TRUE! Go figure.

The Media Campaign of phase #2 or #3 is gonna be in full swing.

Here is my hunch, tell me what you think:

Sirius will ink up a deal with someone other than Infinity or Clear Channel to air the Howard Stern Show, censored for a full day or week. Plan is to have those fans that have not jumped over to hear Howard again and say, "damn, i miss Howard and its great to hear him again... im going to subscribe".

I have always thought of that to be a great strategy by Sirius and i hope that's whats going on.

I had my buddy ride in my work truck who was a "casual" Howard listener and he said to me after the first 30 mins, "damn dude, it's so fuckin' cool to listen to Howard, man. Plus the music is a good plus, u know?"
Sure enough that day he went out and bought his Sportster 4 at the Best Buy in Porter Ranch.

All you need to do is have people hear the show again and give them a chance to miss it.

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

>> Oh by the way, How come no one tries to rebuke this gem:

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

The mere fact that he said that is rebuttal enough.

Think about it.

Pete, you're being gay again

they are going to sell Howard and merge with XM at the same time.

no more competition with XM means they dont need Howie. May only sell part of him and keep a raw uncensore version to keep people happy. but if the plan is to merge then sell him while he is worth something JMHO

Here's what'll happen, I bet: this shows up a couple more places, then Stern goes on his show, says he got yet another offer to go to terrestrial, but he turned it down, because this is where the revolution is, etc. etc, then all the people on his show praise him, then a bunch of people call in to praise him, etc. etc.

Funny this pops up as stories suggesting he is fading from view start to show up elsewhere.

when you spend 2/5 of your show talking about someone you still have a gruge with.you blow off a guest
to talk more about said person.its time to get over it move on.there like that friend that goes through girlfriend after girlfriend but still brings up the love of his life.or maybe they herd this rumor and they are pissed.now thats great radio.

If it is/was good for ONA why not Howard ? ... I don't think the cash registers are ringing at either XM or Siri. I'm shocked Mel's mother isn't selling Sirius Pencils.

It's all possible when you is poor and getting poorer.

i believe Howard talked about Imus for most of his career and a good part of his movie . if i was O&A i would trash Howie for 2/5 shows until the day he retired .

"It would never happen. Howard said he would never return to terrestrial radio. Nevermind the fact that he'd be following in O&A's footsteps, which i think even the average Stern fan would know he would never do."

He also said he wouldn't go to satellite, that it was for losers, and he followed in O&A's footsteps by going to satellite. You can't believe anything Stern says.

The best part of listening to a exclusive show is we can laugh at all the idiots speculating about what he does and doesn't say.

"Pete, you're being gay again"

Not that there's anything wrong with that. It just seems to be a state of being for O/A fanboys...

:)

Wondering who pointed this fake story out to Orbitcast. Howard denied that he will be returning to terrestrial radio today on his show. He said the story was completely false.

Also, Sat. Standard Group's site had this to say-

"Additionally, based on several calls I have made to the investment community, it is a possibility that the NY post story was "planted" by a certain hedge fund that may have a short position in Sirius stock."

i think o/a followed jay thomas

How about Howard getting Ba, to admit he Banged Jessica Simpson today!

How about Howard getting Bam Margera, to admit he Banged Jessica Simpson today!

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

stern will be back on FM, he cant stand his arch rivals Opie and Anthony becoming as big as he was, with a satellite and FM show. The facts are, Sirius has lost money since stern has been on, Since day one of O&A first broadcast on FM. Sirius has lost money and subscriptions. and O&A have proving that you can still profit on satellite with a FM show. I bet he is pulling his hair out, and will have no other choice but to return to save his career. He has to much ego to let O&A take over.

by the way I'm a fan of both O&A and Stern. i feel bad for Stern. He put all his chips in one basket and it backfired on him. I haven't bought XM or Sirius and don't plan to. I can get O&A archive shows for free on the Internet but cant find many stern shows. Plus i can get free O&A in the morning on FM, so by default O&A win. I loved stern he kept me entertained for years, but i also love O&A. So by default O&A have my ears at the moment. I you look at the facts on this site you can see that O&A are on the way in and Stern is on the way out.

wow, thats the most loaded up bullshit post i've ever read wojo. you think stern cares that much about o&a, it will take over his career to the point he will return to fm? so every radio host that is on free fm, by default, they beat stern? are you insane?

Listen to yourselves your all dumb...Howard isnt going anywhere...he is definately making money lol...and He has already proved himself in his head. He could care less about O and A and im sure he loves the challenge of succeeding once again on Sat radio.

Also...He is the only host/interviewer on TV Radio or magazine with the balls....and the ability.....to extract the personal information that he does from top notch celebs. O and A? who the fuck are they to celebrities.
