HOWARD STERNS BIG MOUTH IS OPEN AGAIN

From CNN.com:

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Shock jock Howard Stern made his latest pitch to drum up support for his switch to satellite radio by giving away hundreds of free Sirius Satellite Radio boomboxes Thursday.

Thousands of fans chanting "Howard! Howard!" under the direction of midriff-baring cheerleaders turned out to get the free goods in Manhattan's Union Square and hear Stern make his case for listeners to pay for radio.

"This will be dominant form of media because there is no government regulation," said Stern. "It's the death of the FCC. They have ruined commercial broadcasting -- down with the FCC! Down with the FCC!"

Stern gave away 500 boombox units and thousands of certificates for free radios from a mobile stage adorned with American flags while Ozzy Osborne's music blasted away.

I don't know what the hell he's doing, he is supposed to be bringing in listeners, and I dont think giving them free radios is really going to help the little doggie company rake in the money. What pisses me off is that he used Ozzy's music. He thinks that he's doing this all in the name of free speech, what he's really doing, by calling all the attention to the fact that satellite isn't regulated by the FCC, is begging the FCC to find a loophole and step in. What a complete and utter tool.
