'Skins Lose, Stern Wins

Instead of talking about how the 'Skins bit the big one today, I'll turn my attention to this article. Apparently, some very clever radio pirates successfully broadcasted Howard Stern's Sirius radio show on the left end of the dial. Because the FCC has no jurisdiction over satellite radio, Stern cannot be punished. People want their Howard and will attain it by any means necessary.

Illegal, pirated radio broadcasts of his Sirius Satellite program have been heard this week — for free — on broadcast radio, including 95.1 FM in Brooklyn and 101.5 FM in North Jersey.

I am in the camp that believes Howard's radio show is infinitely better on satellite radio. His bits sound less forced and flow more naturally. It just sounds like a bunch of friends gathered around a few beers and talking regularly.
