Howard Stern and the future of New York radio
Posted by Dominic Basulto
The New York Daily News asks: With Howard Stern moving to Sirius Satellite Radio next year and more radio listeners making the jump to satellite, what will become of the broadcast radio airwaves in New York City? In fact, says the Daily News, New York radio "faces its last great wakeup call" as it responds to changing technologies, changing consumer tastes, and changing radio formats.
On a related topic, MSNBC (via Hollywood Reporter) has more details on the new channel lineup at Sirius Satellite Radio, which will include two (count 'em, two!) Howard Stern channels. If you don't like the notorious shock jock, don't worry... Sirius also plans to offer five "family and kids" channels - as well as three Christian music channels - for listeners with decidedly different tastes.
