		<description>They&#039;re Both Wrong, because they&#039;re both based on love and hate. Jim has said himself, he loves leno and loves doing his show. Howard has expressed how much he hates leno, and has said it on Letterman&#039;s show. Leno&#039;s a piece of shit, and he should have went to a new station if he really wanted a job, but conan also should have seen it coming.</description>

		<description>Who knew that the Opie Anthony show was still on the air anywhere?  Norton sucks, how many repetitive aids jokes and peterson jokes can anyone take.</description>

		<description>Hey Derek, what grade did you drop out so you could spend quality time with your mama at the trailer? Here is my response to your moronic statements. 

&quot;yeah like the way you work the numbers John Johnson. who do you work for Neilson?&quot; 

For starters it is Nielsen you waste of life, and no I do not work for them. My figures came directly from Sirius/XM. It is called looking up facts before you type. But it is obvious you don&#039;t understand that. Here is a little helpful reminder. It&#039;s called reading! Top to bottom, left to right... a group of words together is called a sentence. Take Tylenol for any headaches... Midol for any cramps. 

&quot;well you dont agree with the CEO of Sirius.&quot; 

Nope cause Mel couldn&#039;t make a profit with a money tree farm. Plus his latest statements give him an out should Stern leave. Read the latest statements from Mel on Stern and then get back to me. Feel free to use my advice above to help you disseminate the info.

&quot;i mean really John Johnson you must know more than the person that runs a multi-billion dollar business&quot;

Where in my response to your dribble did I say I know more then Sirius. I stated my opinion that Stern is bankrupting Sirius and XM. Howie hasn&#039;t paid for even half of his $500M contract and never will. In fact Mel had to get debt financing to cover Stern&#039;s lack of performance. Just read (again use above help) the SEC filings. Just watch this January and see if Howie even gets renewed and at what price. If Howie was not worried about his place at Sirius/XM then why the Idol, Terrestrial Radio, and other BS media attention now? Not a peep from the guy for years but 6 months before he is kicked from Sirius/XM Howie tries to get in the news every week. 

&quot;John Johnson, what a boring fucking name&quot;

Said Derek Farmer.....yeah real mind blowing name you got there fucktard. 

&quot;do the world a favor, drink a gallon of wet cement, and put your head in the oven on about 350.&quot;

Guess you realized you have no good argument when you get called out for posting BS. I am glad you finally came to the conclusion you are truly a person with a first grader education. GG little man. Look forward to your reply when you get out of your exciting job mopping the floor at McDonald&#039;s. Maybe one day the manager will trust you with fries. It will be a while though, since we all heard about the last time when you burned yourself after getting all worked up hearing the fryer ding!</description>

		<description>&quot;in under 5 years Sirius went from 900,000 listeners to just under 20 million. nothing more to say exept: please Howard keep over performing, and negotiate a new 1 billion dollar contract, yer worth every penny!!!!!&quot;

Okay, you have got to be kidding.  The reason(s) why a few people have the (combined) services of XM and Sirius is due to a merger, not Howard.  When Sirius and XM merged, XM had more subs, not Sirius.  XM also had more legitimate subs, in that, the subs were from cars off the lot, not the way Sirius would count, which were cars off the lot and unsold on the lot.  There has been a lot written about this in the past, do you ever read anything other than Howard&#039;s home page?  

Look, if you hate O&amp;A, fine.  I love listening to O&amp;A, far more fun to listen to, far more &quot;real&quot; in that the people are just thrown under the rug for stupid comments, they &quot;car-crash&quot; their own joke when they don&#039;t go over...it is a real laugh when it happens.  I used to listen to Stern, he was fine, but I don&#039;t need Howard fans to tell me how horrific they are, O&amp;A have no problem reminding me how &quot;bad&quot; they are on a particular day/bit, whatever.  Howard wouldn&#039;t be half as annoying if it wasn&#039;t for dolt fans that think he has done it all (first) because he says so.  Do your research, you might find that he didn&#039;t invent it all.  He&#039;s a great entertainer, but he didn&#039;t invent the world, he&#039;s a comedic radio show host that has had some great luck and ability...O&amp;A have done alot of great things themselves, but all anyone can say is either &quot;those are the guys that broadcast the people having sex in the church&quot; or &quot;that one dude sounds a lot like Howard&quot;...get over it.  Listen to Howard 100 and I&#039;ll listen to XM202.</description>

		<description>Hey Anon, you are entitled to your opinion. But guess what, I feel exactly the same way you do. Except I love Opie and Anthony and I dont really care for Stern anymore. I use to love Howard Stern and all the gang. But once I discovered Opie and Anthony, I never went back. I have never laughed so hard in my life, day in and day out, as I do with Opie and Anthony. They are truly the best of the best when it comes to radio, PERIOD!</description>

		<description>Listening to Stern on satellite and laughing my ass off consistently got me into comedy talk show radio and I decided to check out Opie and Anthony to see how they compared. Compared to Howard, they are truly horrendous, and I don&#039;t give a damn about radio rivalries or any of that crap. Neither does Howard, actually, since he&#039;s recently said it&#039;s all BS and there&#039;s nothing personal between him and Opie and Anthony. They used to irritate him but they don&#039;t anymore. In my objective view, they are complete amateurs compared to Howard. It sounded like college radio. Listening to Howard also made me realize that a lot of comedy on TV isn&#039;t that great. I always knew Jay was lame, but suddenly, even Conan started seeming lame and artificial to me. I listened to Howard talk about how true entertainment is all about honesty, going out there and saying exactly what&#039;s on your mind, and I turned on the TV and saw Conan dancing around and doing little childish skits while his career was being ruined. I so agreed with Howard that Conan should have just done the entire show sitting at the desk, blasting everyone that was screwing him over. Now that would have been entertainment. No one &quot;gets it&quot; more than Howard, that&#039;s why he&#039;s truly the King. A lot of people laugh at the idea that Howard Stern is the pinnacle of comedy, but if Howard really wanted to, if he actually accepted one of those limitless offers to have his own TV show, people would quickly realize that he&#039;s better than pretty much anyone out there in any form of media entertainment.</description>
