This guy makes like $100 million a year and is a complete waste of oxygen. A useless contributor to society. His latest fiasco is calling Lena Howard "fatgirl". Totally unnecessary and uncalled for.

Waste of oxygen? He's entitled to oxygen as much as anyone else. I have Sirius and don't listen to him but that doesn't mean others don't and shouldn't.

I'd rather the choice not to listen to people I don't care for than the alternative.

and she said "I am not thin but I am thin for, like, Detroit" :) Whoever considers her thin let them cast the first stone.

I consider his show to be the best that Sirius has to offer. He is smart and funny and it's not boring. Robin Quivers is also great.

I usually download his show and listen to it. I do enjoy it most of the time although I find Robin irritating. As far as how much he makes he has proven himself to be one of the most successful radio personalities of all time, like him or not that is a fact.

he is actually quite brilliant if you care to understand the nuance of his technique.
the best interviewers and top media people hold him in high regard.
his remarks of lena were taken completely out of context.
did you hear the subsequent interview he did with lena, live on air?
whereby he and she discussed the whole issue. lena herself accepted his explanation.
did you hear the interview? his explanation? if not then, you dont have all the information, therefore, dont comment.

Pretty much everyone in the radio broadcasting industry look up to Howard Stern. No matter what you think of him as a person, he is a genius in his field.

You obviously have no clue what you're talking about. There are a few forums where "fans" do nothing but rip Howard apart, those people aren't fans.

I don't love everything about the show, I skip past a few parts I don't like.
That being said The show is going strong, if anything Sirius is on thin ice with Howard.
Between stiffing him on the bonus he earned, and nickle and diming him on little things to screw with him. He really is getting fed up with them.

As for the Lena comments, nobody thought anything of it, until perez hilton (you know the guy who drew circles around celebs kids pictures and called them fat and/or ugly?) Cherry picked one line out of a five plus minute rap on the show Girls.
Oh, and for the record Howard loves the show, it just took him a few episodes to get it.(i haven't seen it yet.)
Rockslinger you should really listen to all the comments before starting a troll thread.

BTW where did the 150mil come from? Best I've heard is $80m from serius and $20 from Americas got talent.

Agreed, I think his interviews are more interesting because he can ask things others can't, also because his guests can say anything they want, unsensored on his show.
Another part of why his interviews are better because of the format, he can go for up to two hours without a commercial. This gives a lot of room for manouvering.

That being said, he just has a way of getting people to relax and talk, he also puts in a hell of a lot in preparing for the interviews.

His comment was about Lena Dunham, and what he said is kind of funny. He basically calls that show Girls lame, and the she is a little fat girl who always takes her clothes off. Sounds like the truth to me. Why should he apologize for that?

i don't watch the show and never heard of her before. so i took a look at some pics. yes, she's chubby. i wouldn't call her "fat" but that's a judgement call usually stemming from the difference between your shape and the chubber. howard is pretty fit, so in his world, yes, she is fat. in normal usa, she's actually slim! that's assuming there's meaning behind the words. but i don't think there is. the fat word is used just for shock value. same as he made fun of her chosen hair style. i got tired of his extreme talk years ago.
