Like him or not, Stern's career in radio was built over 20 years. But the "might" of a big company like Viacom can do wonders. Depends on how they play it. Best strategy would be NOT emphasizing the "replacing Stern" part. Just help David Roth do the very best show he can. Ditto for markets using Adam Corrolla.

I agree with things Hannity and Liddy have said about Stern to the effect of (paraphrasing), "While I might not agree with Stern's programming, I'd hate to be in a country where he wasn't free to speak."

Comparing Stern and Roth is like comparing "apples and oranges." How come no-one's doing a similar poll about Adam Corrolla? Actually, I always thought Loveline and Tom Letkis were similar. Not sure which of them came first.

My vote would be "Who cares?" Anything else I could possibly say would be edited by the admin here. Unregistered guests can't vote.

Stern may not as liberal as Savage makes him out to be. Savage himself goes back and forth on Iraq. Savage seems most upset by his perception of Stern's use of the mentally retarded. But the ones Stern's using seem to volunteer for it - not unlike the "so called normal" hookers, strippers, and lesbians that go on Stern's show.

Savage had a severely disabled brother though, and I'm sure he sees his brother in some of Stern's handicapped guests.

I went with "unfair question." Whether Stern goes down in history as being to talk radio what Elvis was to rock (a direction changer) remains to be seen... Stern refused to play along with the "Radio Hall of Fame."

Roth and Corrolla need to blaze their own trails.

Please can my previous vote be erased and can I vote again?? NOOOOOOOOOOOO!! DLR isn't even a good replacement for DLR. Streaming didn't work, I got a quicktime link later and wound up stopping it... Old musicians should just fade away... He needs to finish paramedic school, then give free treatment to all the people whose ears he damaged...
