I listen to this guy every morning. I'm on his side against hot 97 but i have to admit he sunk really low this time. He was already winning the ratings battle...and he was doing a good job of ignoring hot 97's remarks about him..now he goes and says stuff even lower than them. Why fued in the first place though? Just another example of black men acting like stupid slaves.

it's about time they got rid of him

he should have gotten canned when he did that Aaliyah skit after she passed

if he made some comment like that about one of my kids on the air i would have gotten at this dude in the worst way, that was classless and immature

These "shock jocks" want to be like Howard, but they don't know how to do it. In the 20+ years I've listened to Stern, he's said some outrageous sh!t, but never verbally attacked a child.

I can't see how he'd even think he'd get away with it in the name "shock radio". If losing his job is the worst that happens to him after that stunt, he should consider himself lucky.

I left/lost (little bit of both) my job at our radio station at the start of my freshman year in college. For my last job, I ran a late-night show which basically covered the whole country. Of course, only old people and a couple of students listened to that, so I needed only half of hour or so to piss them off. Me and my friends had several skits that included: Hitler reading his poetry (haikus), extreme chess which was played nude and a joke contest with listeners calling and us not laughing (we laughed only to our own stupid jokes) plus some more. As an addition, I was constantly calling the listeners 'viewers' and demanded that camera shows this and that. Obviously, almoust no one got that we were joking and we got bunch of pissed of calls from our pissed off listeners. Some students did call, though, and we continued joking and pissing off old people. And yes, that was my last time to work there :lol:.
