- "Hello all
-
-
-
-
-
- Well, I have had a chance to listen to Howard Stern (in Chicago)
-
- for a couple of weeks now, and now I feel I can give my opinion
-
- of his work.
-
-
-
- I really tried to give his show a chance, listened to it every day at
-
- least for the past 2 weeks. At first I thought, not too bad, maybe this
-
- guy can be as good as people claim.
-
-
-
- Well, as the days went by, it became obvious that I just don't get this
-
- guy's appeal. I mean, the show seems to be nothing more than a
-
- commercial for his video, for himself, etc. ALL he seems to do is
-
- constantly plug his video. Is he so insecure that he practically
-
- has to beg everyone to order his video?
-
-
-
- Also, on one show he is slamming this Gennifer Flowers chick (Clinton's
-
- gal), and then a few days later, she is on his show, and he is basically
-
- kissing her ass, an ass he called big a few days earlier.
-
-
-
- Sorry for all that like this guy, but I have to admit I don't
-
- care for his show, he is a little too high on himself, and his cohort
-
- is also very annoying.
-
- By the way, I have what most would consider a very sick sense of humor,
-
- so it isn't that I don't like him because I find him offensive. I just
-
- have found his show to be boring.
-
-
-
- I think WLUP in Chicago really screwed up by getting him on the AM,
-
- and putting Steve & Garry on FM. It is enough for me to even give up on
-
- the station totally.
-
- I started listening to Howard when he came on the air via WJFK-AM. My
- sick sense of humor helped me to enjoy Howard. Yes, he is promoting his
- tape a lot, so I suggest you tune in after the first of the year.
- You'll miss a lot if you wait though. You have to admit that he is much
- better and much more talented than your average morning show on the air
- today.
-
- I agree that Howard should've been put on the FM, but what can you do?
- His ratings are remarkable on the AM as it is now. It's pretty strange
- how the AM and FM in Chicago are competing against each other. That was
- one of the weirdest press conferences I've ever heard when WLUP picked
- him up.
