Howard Stern Siruis Channel Debuts With Fart
In a manner appropriately befitting Howard Stern and his crew, the silence on his soon to be occupied Sirius was broken with, you guessed it, farting. At 6:30 yesterday morning, Junior the Farter farted, kicking off a day-long fart-fest in what will surely be history's most revered broadcast launch. Stern wasn't on hand for the event and Infinity barred him from airing the event on his terrestrial broadcast. As of next year, all the fighting Stern has had with the broadcast establishment will be moot as he moves to Sirius. Oddly, there was a charm to the censorship that forced the team to invent hilariously creative means for discussing raunchy topics with substitute topics. Somehow openly saying fuck, shit, piss, tits just isn't going to feel the same.

What do you mean saying fuck, piss, shit isn't going to be the same? It'll be better! You're probably one of those people that doesn't pay for HBO but doesn't mind watching censored, cut and redubbed movies on USA - or you think covering up a women is more mysterious thus sexier - listen here mac - naked is sexier than clothed - saying fucking is cooler than saying freaking and Stern will finally get his chance to be Stern.
You're right on. I'm a Sirius subscriber and love the censor free entertainment. Stern will never be the same without the publicity of FCC violations, management battles, etc. I predict that he will be finished within 2 years of this move. He will need to come back to public airways to maintain the publicity needed to keep him on top of the industry.
