Isn't Howard Stern scheduled to speak at the Democrat National Convention? I think he's going to introduce Larry Flynt.

I agree Stern ran out of steam when his wife left--it was the thing that linked him to us--The every man wondering out loud what it would be like if he was still single. It's just been forced, and not very funny. His show is beneath him, pandering to the lowest common denominator.
I hope he doesn't do a Lenny Bruce--seems a lot like him. Pushing the edges of taste and complaining about the establishment reaction for doing so. Radio is an industry, not a democracy. If the owners don't find him funny, off the air he goes, end of story. I think what I found most annoying about his show was the whining--he's a fifty year old millionaire who is famous and dates fashion models, he's smothered in opulence and still whines like a hard done by little kid.
