Howard...stop your whining! The people of America are exercising the same 1st amendment freedom of speech rights that you claim are being trampled on. Your show has gone down the toilet and people are sick of you. This is not about Bush or the Republican party...this is about YOU!

Stern does not want to lose his 10-12 million dollar gig:)

Stern's audience, Harrison said, is broader than most people realize. "They're not just 18-year-old, beer-drinking yahoos. They're 20- and 30- and 40-something professionals. Baloney. If you've listened to both Howard Stern and Don Imus, a huge difference between the two audiences is evident within ten minutes. Stern's advertisers include a bunch of no-name local companies that I've never heard of, while Imus' advertisers include Mercedes Benz, Jeep, and the New York Stock Exchange.
This is why Imus laughs at all the grief he gets from Howard Stern supporters over Stern's superior ratings -- Stern's ratings are much higher than Imus', and yet Imus advertising revenue is substantially greater.

Is "shock jock" Howard Stern's voice powerful enough to affect the upcoming presidential election to the extent of sending President Bush packing?
That's what the Boston Globe wants to know, explaining that the liberal talk show host the newspaper describes as a "stripper aficionado, champion of misfits everywhere, all-purpose radio provocateur," has turned his raunchy show into a Bush bashing marathon.
Rush has about 5x as many listeners as Stern, and Rush doesn't waste 3/4 of his time making infantile pee pee poo poo jokes. Also, I suspect many Stern listeners will not bother to go to the polls.

Could Howard Stern Topple Bush? I'd like to answer this question with another question?
Which of these two outcomes does Stern prefer?
The world that
Kerry's Coalition of the Unwilling
made for the Vietnamese children
BBC photo of DaNang school children at ceremony commemorating the fall of Saigon
The world that
Bush's Coalition of the Willing
made for the Iraqi children.

"his outrage has boiled to a head with news that Congress is currently considering a radical increase in the amount of FCC indecency fines (from a maximum of $27,500 to $500,000). It's over," Stern said on the air. "When the Senate passes that bill, it's over. The show is over" What will this pompous ass do should his man Kerry vote with the majority?

Could Howard Stern Topple Bush? Excerpt:"It's over," Stern said on the air. "When the Senate passes that bill, it's over. The show is over. . . We can't do a radio program that's cutting edge . . . if the government keeps second-guessing everything we do."
Stern also insists that Clear Channel dropped him last month not because of indecency on his show but because of some of his Bush criticism earlier in the year. "There's a real good argument to be made that I stopped backing Bush and that's when I got kicked off Clear Channel," he told his listeners earlier this month.
"He is self-aggrandizing if he thinks he's being singled out here," Jeffrey Chester, executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy, a Washington-based advocacy organization told the Globe. "Congress is engaging in this kind of witch hunt generally. I don't think they're singling out Stern for his alleged critical comments against the Bush administration."

Who's Howard Stern?
To: Mich0127
Stern - and heck, Rush Limbaugh, too, for that matter - loses listeners using air time to talk about his own problems. Reminds me of televangelists like Dr. Gene Scott, or Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker who've gotten in trouble with the law and then used their programs to rant to their fans. Stern will wind up with a much smaller following because of this - the same batch of Bush-haters who'll tune in to Al Franken's liberal talk radio show.

Those who think Stern is simply a fool or a pornographer will have to eat crow. He's smart and he's influential and he's courageous. That doesn't mean he's right. It means he's a formidable opponent.
To: Mich0127
"Join me and friends of this show who are outraged," Stern said on the air last Friday. "Vote out every Republican you can find."
Moreover, Stern is also asking his listeners to send money to Kerry's campaign, calling the Massachusetts Senator "a good man" and praising both his record in Vietnam as well as his anti-Vietnamese war activities. Looks like the muck-ridden Stern and his ugly program are finally going down and out in his own slime.
COULD HOWARD TOPPLE STERN?

If Howard was really serious about his cause he'd kill himself in protest !...............yep that'd prove he was serious to me. Seems funny that he was OK with all his talking /rant points till he had to pay money out of his pocket for straying outside the guidelings that he hisself agreed to in contractual agreements etc etc......Wahhhh Howie !
Stay Safe Mich127.....

No person in this world is impervious to bitter criticism. Even if a person thinks/knows he is right, it is still eventually to get to him.
One person who is likely to be least affected by hate and vitriol is Rush Limbaugh. One of the few times Rush really let go( and he HAD to do something drastic) was when vile cretins said McVeigh of the Murrah Bldg atrocity, was inspired by Rush.
I would venture this on Stern:
Deep down he wants to be loved. He no doubt thinks this is his admission ticket to "love" from the usual suspects.

They're 20- and 30- and 40-something professionals. They're mainstream American citizens who are well-educated and affluent.... Some of us are also Catholic and Republican, and between the Gibson/Passion and GWB bashing I just decided to turn him off, this after having been a loyal listener for 8+ years.
I think this article is missing another perspective, in that a portion of his audience may be heading for the exits because his constant martyrdom is just plain boring. Those who are left probably weren't likely to vote W to begin with.
Stern-free and loving life!
