Stern Debut

(FMQB) Howard Stern made his long-awaited debut on Sirius Satellite Radio today. While there were a few technical glitches at the start, once Stern and his crew got rolling, it was business as usual with only a couple noticeable changes in the program. The first is the hiring of George Takei as the announcer for Stern's program. Best known as Star Trek's Sulu, Takei was live in the studio for his debut. The other was the lack of commercials, as Stern's debut went commercial free -- and lasted well into the 11 a.m. hour. Stern said 6 commercial units per hour would show up starting tomorrow with clients including Heineken and Vermont Teddy Bear.[see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
