The Stern Factor
Lake Titicaca | Today | Brainhose

Posted on 12/26/2005 5:11:55 AM PST by Brainhose

For at least the third time, The O'Reilly factor is repeating his interview with Howard Stern.
Is O'Really fishing for a contract with Sirius satellite? Or is this strictly an attempt to boost ratings?
What say you? And please be pithy. Also no bloviating, that's my job.

Well, the holidays are on us, everybody's on vacation, and O'Reilly knows that Stern is one of the most listened to people on radio. It's a ratings thing.

I hope he's not trying to get on Sirius. They have enough bad political talk.

Just two men with overrated self-impressions.

Howard is just a testimony of personal failure when the entire focus is on self and not others.

What has happened to his family? His daughters?

What does he have left as he ages and becomes non-relevant?

I thought Stern has already made the move to Sirius.

I really don't know anything about Stern. People are accusing me of having gotten Sirius in anticipation of Stern's arrival but the reality is that I hope Stern's paycheck doesn't sink Sirius. The guy's a pig and I don't know if his trailer trash fans can afford satellite radio.

Certainly not his looks. That man did not age well.

My question was if O'Reilly was fishing for a spot on Sirius for himself.
If you had read my question this would have been apparent.
I know that Stern is already signed on to Sirius. It has been drilled into our (Expletive) skulls 3 or 4 times by O'Reilly already. SHEESH!

That's why he was giving away Sirus receivers when he made the announcement last year! He KNEW he had to get them into the hands of his listeners somehow.

I thought the Stern vs. O'Reilly shows were actually somewhat entertaining. Kinda felt like sticking Hilary Clinton in a boxing ring with Pat Buchanan.

Have you looked at Sirius’ stock?

It just went from 5 cents per share a few weeks ago to over 37 cents now.

The company is profitable and has a handle on its long-term debt.

Sirius is not regulated by the FCC, hence they have great programming (like Mike Church, Cam & Company, and Mark Levin).

Buy the stock now as it is going up massively.

Also, if Obama gets his version of the Fairness Doctrine installed, Rush will run to Sirius, assuring another 5 million subscribers.

Is O’Reilly angling for a spot on Sirius?! Well, his nightly show is already broadcast on Sirius’s Fox News channel live feed. His former radio show was on Fox Talk channel on Sirius.

So, the answer is
