Need proof that Hoo-Hoo Stern is a total prick when it comes to his overbearing and talentless ego? Then look no further to his statements regarding a long-rumored gag order against Opie and Anthony. Thanks for finally coming clean on one of many matters, Hoo-Hoo. Maybe you should also get some plastic surgery for your show, seeing how what you got done on yourself helped you none. When Stern was asked by a caller about the gag order, he confirmed it by admitting, “That’s right. I believe in censoring anyone who is my enemy.” He also added, “I believe in censorship when it benefits me.” Playing back that audio on their XM Satellite Radio program this morning, Anthony noted the hypocrisy of that statement by saying, “He’s been complaining that individual members of the FCC were putting their morality on his program instead of interpreting FCC law … which is exactly what he did [with us].” O&A have also been pointing out what they call more hypocrisy by Stern for taking off certain Fridays, playing audio of Stern, Robin Quivers and Artie Lange discussing why it is important to be in the studio five days a week. “If you are not there on Fridays, then you are doing a disservice to your audience,” says Stern in the audio clip. “If you are going to do this job, then you show up every day and give it your best.”

Body blow! Body blow! Body blow! KNOCK HIM OUT!!!!
O&A’s obsession with Stern is so sad. Can’t they recognize a joke? Why don’t they just forget about Stern and put on a good show? XM is apparently giving their service away ($3 a month to people that are threatening to leave) and this just smells of desperation.
Stern hasn’t taken too many Fridays off so far, as he feels he needs to get the two channels going before taking any time off.
It wasn’t a joke. Can’t you recognize when you hero is an asshole? Stern is sad. Him and his goofy excuse for a Barbie doll girlfriend who obviously has no mind of her own whatsoever.
Oh, and they do put on a good show, but since you’re a Hoo-Hoo lover, you wouldn’t get to hear it. It’d be wasted on you, anyway.
I’d say a couple of Stern copycats who try to ride his coat tails by starting a feud with him are the a-holes, but that’s just me.
Stern isn’t my hero, but he is the King of Radio and the current SIRIUS vs. XM numbers are proving that out. O&A would be wise not to burn any bridges with SIRIUS or SIRUIS’ major talents, because XM isn’t exactly doing well since Stern signed with their competitor. If XM folds, they’ll have to go back to terrestrial radio and they won’t be able to tell people to have sex in church for laughs. (Boy, that is brilliant comedy.)
Again, O&A wouldn’t exist without Stern, so I don’t understand their crapping all over him. I post this concept on every one of your Stern-hating threads, but it appears to be lost on you.
“Stern isn’t my hero, but he is the King of Radio and the current SIRIUS vs. XM numbers are proving that out.”
Which numbers are those?
Oh, Paulsen, quit kissing Hoo-hoo’s ass all the time. “King of the Radio?” God you Stern fanboys are pathetic. O&A have said on their show that yes, Stern was a groundbreaker …but that was AGES AGO. He’s not funny like he used to be, and has been spinning his wheels for years. You’re telling me there’s no room for improvement?
And you’re going to pick on O&A for the Sex For Sam contest? Name 10 original things The King of Radio has done in the past 10 years. please, I’d love for you to come up with a quick shortlist of Hoo-hho’s achievements in radio that leave all his “imitators” behind in the dust. I bet you can’t even come up with five. But that’s OK, as we all know Hoo-Hoo invented everything to do with shock jocks on the radio, as well as breathing, eating, sleeping, and drinking.
Oh, and everything in a grey area is ALWAYS lost on you Paulsen, so I’m not too terribly fucking worried about any of your anal opinions.
Far be it from me to get involved in this “debate” — it’s much more fun to watch from the sidelines than it is to get involved — but just because someone gets the higher ratings doesn’t mean they’re better. After all, Matchbox Twenty outsells the New Pornographers and Franz Ferdinand ten thousand to one. Does that make Matchbox better than the New Porns or FF? Not by a long shot.
Anyone whose call-in number is “1-888-9-ASSHOLE” is a comic genius!
Anyway:
1. Citing O&A’s “Sex For Sam” stunt that ultimately got them fired from terrestrial radio is pointless. It happened years ago. If you want to debate this, please dignify it and find out what’s going on now with the O&A show. It’s as easy to search for as doing a Hoo-hoo search to see what attempts at humor he’s been tossing out to his fans daily.
1b. The fact that O&A actually could pull something that got them fired says more about their “shock” ability than Hoo-hoo’s flaccid “talents.” The guy can only wind up getting sued time and again, and comes up with such “rebellious” and “wacky” shit as wearing an “I Hate Les Moonves” shirt on Letterman. Wow. Hilarious.
2. If Hoo-hoo really was “The King of Radio,” then he wouldn’t have left terrestrial radio. Instead, he moved to Sirius, and lost most of his listeners. You;re going to tell me that most of his fans are going to pay $12.97 a month to hear his show? That’s a gut buster in itself. O&A on the other hand came back to radio through XM, undoubtedly gained their original fan base numbers and also increased them. Hoo-hoo, on the other hand, has much to make up. He’s as much “The King of Radio” as Michael Jackson is “The King of Pop.”
3. As for being “The King of All Media,” Hoo-hoo is the farthest thing from it. He’s done one movie years ago…and what, a book…two books? yeah, he’s certainly saturated the market consistently with his brand name. Oh wait, he also had that stupid CD “Unclean Beaver” from back in ‘94. Wow. Stink city.
4. Jimmy Norton and Patrice O’Neal are a million times funnier than Artie Lange and those other gasbags on Hoo-hoo’s show.
5. You sure like numbers a lot. You must own every American Idol contestant’s CD that went to #1.
