I got a private message today in a chatroom that Sirius will bring back DOX News again. The investors are demanding it. But I am not sure now that I care with those news. I just keep listening to my Roady. I get Fox News plus Fox radio

Don't look at me to help Sirius to help pay the foulmouthed Stern's paycheck. I'm sticking with my XM.
To: Kaslin
Their stock has really been down lately - at one point it looked like Stern had added several times his compensation in increased Sirius market cap - its down nearly 30% since Thanksgiving.

You'd have to tie me down to get me to listen to "Ho" Stern.

Howard will bankrupt Sirius before his contract is completely paid out.

Stern is sinking Sirius. Who didn't see this from a mile away?

Hey is there a FReeper here who listens to the show on Sirius. Tell me how the show is going so far. Is it the same better or worse. I must say I miss Stern on my commute.

I got a private message today in a chatroom that Sirius will bring back FOX News again Any idea when? I wrote Sirius, and then everyone at Fox News about it. Sirius wrote back, as did Dana for O'Reilly (only 1 at FNC to respond) and they both said the other one was to blame! We'd switch but we bought Sirius for NFL AND Fox News - and have 2 of them. Now - no NFL and no FNC. :(

That is alot of $$$. I've heard/read that Rush is the most successful radio host in history...I wonder how his contract stacks up against Stern's.
To: Kaslin
Yikes. If I owned Sirius stock, I couldn't dump it quick enough.

Yea, but after taxes he'll have to scrape by on $400 mil.
To: Kaslin
I call BS. For starters, the "increase" is due to Stern's variable compensation (stock) having increased in value. Secondly, the "2.4 million" subscriber number is wildly inaccurate. An annual subscription runs about $140, and the terms of Stern's deal run five years. Do the math, 2.4 million adds corresponds to $1.8 Billion. I think somebody forgot about the deal terms.

In other media news....I last night promised my beer-drinking, conservative pal with a gift for gab, $1.5 billion to be paid over the next five years if he would host the morning block for a new conservative radio network and bring in revenues during the period of at least $6.5 billion. If we go forward, I think we are both prepared to stand by the deal.

There might be a good reason for pay radio, but I haven't found one good enough for me yet.
My scan button finds free radio pretty easily. Cross country it's pretty easy to pick up Rush, Hannity, local talk guys, and music is way to easy to get.
Mostly, though, I travel no more than an hour in either direction from home.
Why pay for radio when I know all the free channels?

"To reach break-even on Stern, we estimate Sirius requires 2.4 million incremental subscriptions," Jacoby wrote in a recent report cited on Forbes.com. Fascinating. I wonder if Sirius will reach escape velocity from Stern's gravity well?

Stern had plastic surgery twice to improve his looks.
He's divorced. He's suffering from anorexic neurosis.
The Man's gay - very, very. gay.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
