Howard Stern 'Wigged Out" about lawsuit 01-04-13

**Nemo** · 01-06-2013, 08:02 AM

What is a risk?
A risk is taking less guaranteed salary with a well defined back-end
Our Howard wants all the money....upfront and back-end.....no risk involved.

60 percent of 23 million?
Translation.....ALL of Sirius and the the XM subscribers that have the Sirius package.....isn't that 60 percent of 23 million?
In conclusion Howard is saying that all subscribers that the the ability to listen to him are listening to him......and YOU must prove that they are not.

Sultan Stern is a man with no integrity.
A greedy lazy person unable to tell the truth about anything!

howard risked nothing. he signed a contract for approx 100 mil a year (guaranteed) without putting up a cent of his own money.
he is full of shit, he had nothing to lose....and even if he did he was still guaranteed the money.

the biggest risk he ever took was to foolishly marry the bimbo. he risked his own children's legacy for a golddigger(although i'm sure alison probably made sure the girls would be protected).

I said it before and I shall say it again.. Howard is wrong on this.. I UNDERSTAND it Howard. I really do.

#1 - XM subscribers did not subscribe to XM because of Howard Stern.

#2 - When Howard's contract was penned it was between Sirius and Howard, period. Not Sirius and XM and Howard. When the contract was written XM subscribers were not to be factored in to any subscriber totals. (They were 2 different companies at that time.)

#3 - Howard's Sirius contract sais that if he meets certain subscriber targets he gets bonus payments. That was agreed to in good faith to ONLY mean Sirius subscribers.

#4 - Then the companies merged, and Don/Howard/Lawyers are trying to SHOEHORN the XM subscribers into the target totals.. in order to TRIGGER the bonus payments.

It's really that simple. Yes it is one company NOW. But when the contract was written the INTENT was Sirius subscriber totals. Period. The intent of the contract was not to include XM subscribers added to Howard's Sirius subscriber totals.

Howard.. sorry buddy.. you're wrong on this one and are just making lawyers rich.

snip

Howard GOT a bonus for the XM subscribers that had Best of XM. Howard is just crazy and wants bonuses for people who can't hear him.
Howard knows this and knows that he is wrong. He just wants to have this in a trial to settle with SiriusXM.

This all started when Mel and the other in the board room payed bonuses to them selves. Howard "I am a partner" wanted a cut and didn't get it. A couple of weeks later he sued.

If Howard is so angry at SiriusXM, why did he re-sign? He sued AFTER the new contract. Just this fact should make the lawsuit invalid.

Howard wants to influence a jury.

The typical juror is going to be more confused after listening to his convoluted explanation.

Hes going to lose again.

Yes.. He will lose again. Any judge or lawyer not being paid by Howard can easily see that the intent of the contract was between Howard and Sirius. It did not include A) any merger, and B) XM subscribers. Howard/Don and their legal team are now trying to shoehorn XM subscribers into the deal. To trigger bonus payments.

Howard is only throwing out good $$$ arguing this... eventually he has to give up and realize that he is just not going to win this one.

As he said in the clip, Howard will never give up. This fuckery will end only when the judicial system shuts him down. Most likely Howard has just one more shot. If the Court of Appeal finds against him, which it will, Howard has no right to a second appeal. He will have to convince a higher court to hear the case. And the chances of that happening are slim and none.

Yup. Howard is fucked. He will NEVER win this one. Never. My belief is Don convinced Howard this would work. Because Don gets a piece of the bonus payment action too. So I can imagine a phone call where Don called Howard one day and said "Ya know, with the companies merged now I think we have hit subscriber totals which trigger bonus payments.." Then Howard - (who was probably oblivious to all this prior) - went, "I trust you Don, do what you have to do."

Then.. when the entire scheme went south on Don and Howard.. Howard got pissed off... and now it's a matter of pride for him. But he is dead wrong and should give up.
