Not much to compare. Limbaugh dominates the ratings among adults in nearly 600 markets.
Stern did well among youngsters in the 30 or so markets he had.
Stern, incidently, is looking to get back on regular radio, and Sirius will be available on the internet soon.
Can someone prove as they posted: "Do you remember when Rush went on and on about how drug addicts should be locked up? Well I do." Never happened.

October 10th, 1995:
"There's nothing good about drug use. We know it. It destroys individuals. It destroys families. Drug use destroys societies. Drug use, some might say, is destroying this country. And we have laws against selling drugs, pushing drugs, using drugs, importing drugs. And the laws are good because we know what happens to people in societies and neighborhoods, which become consumed by them. And so if people are violating the law by doing drugs, they ought to be accused and they ought to be convicted and they ought to be sent up."
"What this says to me is that too many whites are getting away with drug use, too many whites are getting away with drug sales, too many whites are getting away with trafficking in this stuff. The answer to this disparity is not to start letting people out of jail because we're not putting others in jail who are breaking the law. The answer is to go out and find the ones who are getting away with it, convict them and send them up the river, too."
On his TV show on December 9, 1993:
"I'm appalled at people who simply want to look at all this abhorrent behavior and say, "Hey, you know, we can't control it anymore. People are going to do drugs anyway. Let's legalize it." It's a dumb idea. It's a rotten idea, and those who are for it are purely, 100 percent selfish."
... and more

The gimmick account Ann Coulter started throwing wild accusations around about libs do this and that and poor conversatives and poor Rush and blah blah blah. We're still on-topic I promise.

Shenanigans!
Howard would have no incentive to go back to terrestrial radio; he's collecting a handsome paycheck from Sirius and they give him something terrestrial radio is unable to give - TRUE freedom of speech. I cannot see him doing part-time terrestrial and part-time satelite, like O&A do. His satelite show would be ALL bleeps on terrestrial radio!!
Sirius subscribers have been able to log onto sirius.com and listen to Howard for months now.

He is not a drug addict, just hooked on them that are perscribed for him.

All due respect, it doesn't matter how one comes by a substance. Doesn't matter if you take the percocet prescribed by an MD or you buy coke/crack/meth/H/X/pot from a dealer (or cook the meth in your kitchen coffee maker)! Once a person becomes "hooked", or dependent, or whatever euphemism you prefer, the result is the same: the person has the disease of addiction. That doesn't make the person bad, just sick. (though sick people, esp those with addictions, do bad things...)
As for MJF, I think it is truly despicable that anyone would accuse him of faking/acting. My father-in-law has this disease and the effects are so heartbreaking! I imagine they are more-so for a man as young as MJF. I know I'm grateful that he is a proponent for research!
