HOWARD STERN, UNCENSORED?

As shock-jock Howard Stern's January 2006 debut on Sirius satellite radio draws nearer, there is talk that he will not move his companion television program to Spike TV, as has been rumored. Instead he may strike a deal with Comcast Cable to distribute the show on a video-on-demand basis, TV Week reports. While this would require Stern fans to pay twice (for Sirius and VOD subscriptions), it would solve the problems of broadcasting nudity (E! pixelated such images when it carried the program) and a lack of advertiser support. Asked to comment on the rumor, a Scores stripper said, "Like, wow!" then asked that we give her a $20 bill.
