UnanimousCoward writes "Howard Stern announced it on his current radio show, and several feeds including this CNET article are reporting that Stern has signed a multi-million dollar multi-year contract with Sirius Satellite Radio starting in January, 2006.

    Puleeze... give me a break. Stern may be many things, but he's way down on the list of people trying to protect freedom of speech. All he seems to care about is money, degrading women, and bowel movements.

    He made a move for the money - not for the freedom. I suspect he only has one trick, and that's getting strippers to take off their tops and french kiss a fat guy, and he's worn out his welcome in the mainstream radio market.

    I'm all for him having some place to practice his "art." And sometimes his show is amusing, but generally, when you grow up, you grow out of his sophmoric, degrading attempt at humor.

    I think there are many other people who are more worthy of being appreciated for their attempts to express themselves in politically-incorrect ways.
