Howard Stern Fans Switching to NPR
According to a LA Times article today, Howard Stern’s replacements aren’t doing so well. There is even talk of firing David Lee Roth already. Given that not everybody has followed him to Sirius, there is now a whole herd of former listeners looking for new content. I switched to listening to podcasts exclusively, but apparently, NPR is also getting its fair share of new listeners.

“If you love bluegrass, you’re not supposed to love Metallica, but you do,” said Alex DeMers, head of a media consulting firm near Philadelphia. “There’s more than a surface connection between Howard and NPR. As much as Howard is put down as being all about dirt and sex, it’s also intelligent talk, and he’s funny.”
