The NY Post cites an unnamed "insider" source at American Idol who states that Howard Stern is the number one pick to replace Cowell for Season 10.
"They know he would be great TV and would clash with the other judges such as Ellen DeGeneres and the contestants. 'Idol' will do what it takes to sign him."
