What did the "government" not like? I thought Clear Channel fired him.....or did Ashcroft call them up and tell them to fire him?

So, naturally, you don't agree with his boss pulling him off the air... What did the "government" not like? I thought Clear Channel fired him.....or did Ashcroft call them up and tell them to fire him?

I can't even believe people like you two exist!

Howard Stern has been on the air for about thirty years, and people like you think that broadcasters just cancelled his show because suddenly, today, when he said nothing different from every other day, they decided of their own free will to go in a different direction.

You are absolutely insane. You actually believe that it had nothing to do with the recent congressional hearings and the FCC decisions to crack down on broadcasters because Janet Jackson showed her boob?

I am amazed at you. It's like you have the deductive abilities of rubber ducks.

Or are you just lying, because you don't want to admit that the government is taking control of our broadcasters and you're embarrassed to admit that you like it?

Stern was PRO BUSH. So much so that Al Franken attacked him in his book along with Ann Coulter. It is funny that Clear Channel - banner of the Dixie Chicks and linked to Bush - would drop Stern as soon as he went anti-Bush - and Stern went anti-Bush because of the censorship issue. Stern was pro Iraq war and praised Bush nonstop on the war on terror.
