HOT GALLERY: Happy Birthday, Howard Stern! Snakkle Looks Back on the Reign of the King of All Media
Everyone has a theory about why Howard Stern has been so successful. Some say it's because of his honesty, his willingness to court controversy, to say just about anything. But the bottom line is that Howard knows how to entertain an audience. Whether he is hosting his daily radio show, which currently airs semi-daily on SiriusXM Satellite Radio, or judging up-and-comers on America's Got Talent, Howard is indeed honest and certainly says what he thinks. But he's not simply spitting out opinions or platitudes. He's funny, doesn't take crap from anyone, and puts on a show like nobody else can. On January 12, Howard Stern turns 61 years old, and if anything, he's even funnier now than he was on K-Rock or WNBC. Happy birthday, Howard! By Brett Singer
Howard Stern and Don Imus on WNBC in the 1980s
This is Howard Stern and his former colleague Don Imus. Both were featured in a Channel 9 news report by Lloyd Lindsay Young, who is quite a character himself. Stern and Imus sort of got along in those days, back when leg warmers were fashionable. Watch the whole clip to see Stern declare that he will be leaving radio (he didn’t) and croon a little tune for subway vigilante Bernard Goetz with longtime Howard Stern Show personality Fred Norris.
