Howard Stern to Sirius XM: 'Treat me like Oprah'
Howard Stern has a very special request for the bigwigs in charge at Sirius XM satellite radio. Since the King of All Media can't seem to get the respect he so richly deserves under his present conditions, Howard Sternis trying a new tack using language that they can understand. Howard Stern has proclaimed that he now demands the same treatment afforded to Unofficial Queen of All Media, Oprah Winfrey.
"Treat me like Oprah!" screamed Howard Stern during Monday morning's Howard Stern Show broadcast. The proclamation came on the heels of the news that Oprah Winfrey and her entourage had descended on the Sirius XM studios on Friday, throwing everyone on site into a proverbial tizzy. Oprah Winfrey's "O Magazine Show" co-hosted by Gayle King premiered on September 18th at 2:00PM, kicking off a new 24-hour Oprah programming blitz designed to attract some of Winfrey's TV followers.
As reports of Oprah Winfrey's divine visit to the Sirius XM studios trickled in to The Howard Stern Show on Monday morning, Howard Stern's rage grew to diva-like proportions. One staff member reported that Oprah Winfrey's BFF and Personal Wormtongue Gayle King was escorted by security everywhere in the studio, including the bathroom, for protection against any peons that might try to reach out and grab a piece of Miss King's magical coat of Oprah's coattails. A rumor that Howard Stern's picture had been either removed or rearranged on Sirius XM's wall of stars during Queen Oprah's visit pushed Stern over the edge.
"If I find out that's true then I am NEVER re-signing with Sirius XM again. I mean it."
It's unclear if the question of whether Howard Stern's picture was "bumped" down to a lower level during Oprah's visit will ever be answered, but Howard Stern has a few ideas about preventing it from happening again.
"Every executive here should be wearing a Howard mask," proclaimed the King steamily. "I shouldn't see one person who looks like themselves."
Sounds like Howard Stern had an "Ah ha!" moment.

Howie's such a baby, dude your old as hell grow up dude.
Sirius can't afford to re sign Howard
LOL :-)
I am so confused... what does he want exactly?
Great article, BTW!
if and when Howard leaves. Those people should treat him like a god. Sirius XM offers me little else besides Howard.
Howie priced himself out of the market. Sure a million+ subs will walk should he not keep his 'tapes' around.
I'm sure he'll come to some agreement for use of his material and maybe get the Oprah treatment if he shows up once, or twice a year to PROMOTE the platform.
i voted for Oprah because she never proclaimed to start a " Revolution " and skipped on doing fridays .
sternfannetwork sucks FU*K Mutt
artiefannetwork is the best
Tss Taylor treats howard like oprah . Ash TSS Taylor if Howards load is salty or sweet .
He wants to spend more time with his horse face wife.
Howard and his Revolution are the biggest fraud going.
1. No Friday shows, in fact nothing live on Fridays on H100.
2.11+ weeks of vacation a year with moldy replay after moldy replay.
3. Howard just going through the motions to get the show done, no show prep at all, same interview questions to every guest.
4. Constant unwarranted praise for his horse-faced wife, get over it Howard she's an aging former discount store and catalog model.
5. The staffs increasingly elitist attitude about everything which has in turn led to the show's increasing irrelevance.
ArtieFanNetwork.com and Jason Ellis - the future of media
Howard Stern's Show has sadly become what he used to mock, a starfucking, grossly PC radio show that is basically The View with porn stars. All the attacks on the excesses of celebrity are gone replaced with nonstop praise for any celeb that can help his brain dead wife's career. Any controversial subjects are now taboo replaced by criticism of Jay Leno's new show and the exploits of his horse faced wife as she parties to save depressed beagles. His hypocrisy is staggering, just today he was commenting on how wrong it was to develop woodlands and disrupt the wildlife this after he and the Ames model destroyed four acres of untouched beachfront to build their chimney filled achitectural disaster by the sea in his precious Hampton's.
