Howard Stern to join Sirius in '06
Variety.com is reporting that Howard Stern will end his relationship with Infinity Broadcasting in 2006, choosing to sign with Sirius satellite radio instead. The 5-year deal is worth $100 million for Stern. Plus, because satellite radio doesn't use the public airwaves, Stern will not be subject to FCC fines and scrutiny.

Ironically, when I went to HowardStern.com to see if I could find out more info on the deal, I was greeted with this large animated ad for XM satellite radio.

As much as I would love to be able to listen to Howard here in Louisville, I don't know if I am ready to pay for radio.
