SiriusXM Ends Howard Stern!

If there is no deal, SiriusXM will cancel its flagship show. The Howard Stern Show has been on the satellite radio service for over 20 years.

So as a longtime subscriber of SiriusXM, I have noticed some controversial changes to its platform. Longtime listeners of a controversial radio talker are going to be fuming.

The satellite radio service is canceling The Howard Stern Show. 

Another shocking thing in the junk food media.

Howard Stern and Robin Quivers are longtime media personalities and the news was shocking to them. Both are radio personalities, media personalities, actors and writers.

Stern left terrestrial radio in 2004 and joined Sirius Radio which shocked the nation. He took on a challenge. They offered him $100 million and gave him an opportunity to be uncensored, gritty, controversial and exclusive.

Howard 101 and 102 are part of the SiriusXM programming.

All of those rumors come from a story published by The U.S. Sun which said that the satellite radio and streaming provider would not re-up Stern when his contract runs out at the end of the year. Instead, according to the report, SiriusXM would look to make a deal with Stern for his catalogue.

The Sun cited an unnamed “insider” as saying that SiriusXM does intend to offer Stern a new contract at the end of the year, but it does not expect him to take it.

“Sirius and Stern are never going to meet on the money he is going to want,” the unnamed person said per the Sun. “It’s no longer worth the investment.”

No other outlet was reporting the news with sourcing other than the Sun’s report on Tuesday night, meaning that no one has yet to officially go on the record to say that Stern is out.

That said, the 71-year-old has discussed openly on air for some time the decision he would have to make — whether to resign a deal and come back or retire — this year so while it would be heartbreaking for Stern fans to see him go, it probably would not be a surprise.

While there is still no official report with either SiriusXM or Stern on the record, the move had social media churning into the earlier morning hours Wednesday. Much of that had to do with Stern’s political leanings as he has openly sided with liberal ideologies in recent years.

“Howard Stern off Sirius,” Lindell TV’s Vanessa Broussard wrote. “Not renewing his contract after 20 years. Go woke, Go home!”

If SiriusXM does not renew Stern, or if Stern walks away from radio as he has flirted with, he would not do so empty handed.

Celebritynetworth.com estimates that he has a fortune of $650 million.
