Concerning Howard Stern fans

[Dawg]

Throughout the History of The Howard Stern Show have the fans always been vicious?

I mean, are we more vicious today than say 2000?

We are more knowledgeable now.

Howard is no longer on the side of his fans, and there is so much more to target him about!

[fccstandards]

It's like a mob mentality. I'm not too bright and I get sucked in easily.

Completely... Internet was his downfall (in addition to thinking he was a genius/deserved Seinfeld type money for laziness/syndication of the 25K hours of tapes)

I learned it from Howard

[Murcielago]

It would be great to have another "Meanest Listener" contest these days, though castrato Howie would shut it down in 30 seconds if anything real got through the screening.

I can remember when a thread title could be "I love you Howard" in 2006. Now a typical one is "Fuck Howard that Jew wig wearing son of a bitch"

Some of the shit is still the same, back in the 90's on Ivan's "Traveling Stern Message Board" or whatever it was called one of the frequent complaint topics was all the time off. Of course, we've gone from 8 weeks off then to 12 weeks plus Thursday-Friday off now. Howard hadn't entered the world of starfucking, elitist hypocrisy either so there wasn't as much ammunition for the posters.

[FSFN]

Fans? What fans?

[j shmuck]

Just a vicious.

The only difference is that Howard no longer is laughing with us, rather he is offended at and looks down on what us unevolved still find funny, therefore we now laugh at him too.

Howard became everything he hated. Look at developments since then: Made up with Chevy Chase, made up with Rosie, made up with Kathie Lee, says "I piss on my fans", we find out he was the one Billy and Jackie were negotiating against (not Tom and the station), attempts to pay off Mark from MarksFriggin and re-write history. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. It's like when Chief smothers Nickleson at the end of Cuckoo's Nest, this isn't the Howard we knew.

howcie asked us to pay for radios/subs to be with him & he pissed everyone of us. when callers ask him shit he doesn't like he tells them to cancel. fuck howcie.

[wigtropolis]

WE all had our suspicions and then we quickly found out that many others had suspicions.
That was enough it turns out for us to light the torches and grab the pitchforks

[zhukov]

The hate is excessive

time for a reset

[Dawg]

Is there still a chance? If Howard started taking real calls and told the truth. Could you love him again?

[joyceface]

I think it seems worse now because we were prohibited from vocalizing even the most minimal, legitimate criticism. The flood gates have opened and people want blood.

[harlock]

Getting pissed on makes us mean

Good point!!

Censorship played a key role in every Stern fan site in the past. Without censorship are we seeing what people felt all along?
