debate user saddam hussain obama on the ethics of lazy OPs - A Failed Attempt at a Thread on Talk Radio Hosts

[Saddam Hussain Obama]

Talk Radio / Conservative Talk Radio / Shock Jock Radio
​

Before the era of podcasts and streaming you had talk radio, This genre at its height reached millions of listeners and dominated the airwaves, but as streaming and podcasts took off the genre suffered a slow but painful death, as its star hosts either soldout or passed away, so we are going to be discussing talk radio and its impact it had,

Howard Stern / The Howard Stern Show
​

What would a thread on talk radio be without Howard stern Howard, who needs no introduction, was the star of talk radio for most of its peak Howard and his show. The Howard stern show were known for its shock jock antics and was seen as a rebellion to the medium known for being bland, howard was fined over 2.5 million dollars over his entire radio career on FM radio after this howard left to use the experemential sirus satalite radio as it was out of FCC jurisdiction this was not initally seen as what it would then become, howard would fire his cohost artie and marry a gold digger, soon after he would become a woke shell of his former self, most who know him now know him from his woke antics aswell as his boring celebrity interviews,

for more info on howard I suggest watching these videos,

and reading this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Stern

this is a draft of what the thread will look like feel free to shit on it as you did my last thread

 

[Skitarii]

One of these days, you'll write a really good thread. It'll be so good that it gets featured. But by that point, everyone will have put you on their ignore list, and won't be able to see the thread.

Then they'll start seething when the remaining 10% quote the thread, and they aren't able to view it, and it'll be comedy gold

Until then, you're a faggot

 

[Named User]

feel free to shit on it as you did my last thread

Don't mind if we do.

 

[John Freeman]

This needs a lot of work. First, you should have finished it before you actually posted anything. You look like an asshole.

Second, I could be in the minority here, but I really appreciate text-heavy threads (Videos and images load on this site at dialup speeds) and I think it's incredibly lazy (and counterintuitive) to link YouTube videos and tell people "watch this for more info". The entire point of a thread is to serve as a comprehensive write up. Make a fucking write up. Howard stern has a career spanning the last 40+ years. You can't summarize that in a paragraph and supplement it with a few YouTube videos (which, by the way, you neglected to archive or even provide a TL;DW of, which is lazy and inconsiderate).

Third, you should read your thread out loud (or in your head) before you publish it. The grammar and punctuation is fucked up.

I think this has a lot of potential. This was an incredibly turbulent and eventful few decades you're covering here, and it deserves a thread. But you're not giving it the due diligence and reverence it deserves. When it comes to threads that cast such a wide net, you either go big or go home. Because as it stands, this thread isn't even worthy of the prospering grounds. Nobody can even provide a meaningful critique or offer suggestions because this is hardly an OP. You haven't offered enough material to judge the quality of.

I'm not mad, just disappointed. Do better.

Howard Stern was the star of talk radio for most of its peak. His show, the Howard Stern Show, was known for its shock-jock antics and seen as a rebellion against the rest of the medium. After being fined over 2.5 million dollars throughout his career, Howard left FCC-regulated radio to reappear on Sirius Satellite Radio; he kicked out his cohost, married a gold digger and has become known for his woke views and boring interviews.

still fecal but i did what i could
i suggest going into specifics about the fates of the star hosts, the Howard Stern Show's antics, how dull the rest of the medium was, and his views and latest interviews

I use images a lot but I make sure my text is still readable on its own without the images, the images are just evidence to back up what I write.

This is genuine advice and is not meant as an insult: Run your text through ChatGPT and ask it to make it better or easier to read.

Minor side character from another thread got into a funny drama over the weekend. Evangelical radio host and political commentator Steve Deace spent Christmas Eve rewatching It's A Wonderful Life and tweeting out quotes live. Then got to this one, where the main character is encouraged o get over his nerves and court his future wife, Mary Hatch.

This tripped some alarm at Evangelical NORAD, who some how saw it out of context and assumed he was flirting with Roman Idolatry as the Wars of Religion were re fought in the comments. Currently just shy of 500 replies and with a wide range of spin off arguments about the foundation of intercession and status of Mary among humans. On a tweet about sacking up and talking to your crush who happens to be named Mary.

 

[Dire Dire Cocks]

This is actually sad because this is a good topic for a thread. It just was made by a complete inept retard gimmick account who does nothing but make shitty threads for him and his gay buddies to laugh at.

I know you won't listen to this advice or even read this, but you really should. Use more images, stop formatting your shit so autistically, and my god learn how to use punctuation and capitals. Don't just use Howard Stern as an example, add more. Also, what the fuck is that write-up? Two sentences and 4 unarchived YouTube links?

 

[AgendaPoster]

I like that you're trying, but you're not trying hard enough. I'm not big on lolcow enjoying/thread writing so I won't criticize you on that.
Talking about Howard Stern alone has HUGE potential. But that would require you to clip a LOT of video and upload it, make interesting spicy analysis of that etc. and you're too fucking hurried and rushed to do any of that.
BTW, you're wrong about Howie.
He was always "woke" for the era he created content in. You need to understand that in the 90s being "woke" meant doing irreverent content that shit on religion, putting porn stars on the mainstream and normalizing faggotry and degeneracy.
Stern ALWAYS did that. What he does now is simply the expected continuation of his anti-conservatism trajectory.

he might be the blackest, dumbest nigger on kiwi farms
ive only seen him sperg over linux mint and the latest android his mom bought him and whining about how lonely he is when he spends all his time on this site and youtube
also he thinks his posts are 4D chess because he puts no effort into making anything readable

 

[ASeabear8952]

This honestly could work better as a Multimedia thread and if one of these guys seems like lolcow material someone could make a thread about them.

He wasn't woke. There's a distinction between the modern "woke" and the irreverence of the 80's-90's. At that point Christian Conservatives dominated the government and politics, and were rallying to ban anything they deem offensive or blasphemous, while simultaneously claiming to be an oppressed and persecuted group (sound familiar?). Being a shock-jock anti-conservative punk was the counter-culture. Now conservatism is the counter-culture, because the government is run by far left progressive extremists, who want to ban anything they deem offensive or bigoted, while simultaneously claiming to be an oppressed and persecuted group. It's a paradigm shift but the definition of irreverent hasn't changed. Howard just became apart of the institution he hated when it started aligning with his opinions, making him a sellout.

Kinda disagree.
Conservatism in the 80-90s US was not actually right wing, and the cultural power of these Christians was abysmally low already. Conservatism was never and will never by counter-culture. Conservatism has never produced any art/culture that's edgy and worth enjoying. The 90s was kinda peculiar as there was no real counter-culture, as the actual culture was money and individualism, NOT Christian conservatism.
Conservatism is a convenient boogeyman for progressives, but conservatism is truly powerless in the social realm. As dangerous as a pair of fluffy kittens.
Also, it's not fair to judge where people were on the political spectrum based on the interpretations of 2023. For the 90s, Stern was socially far left. A complete degeneracy enabler, without any limitations. He's contributed tremendously in normalizing insanity and psychotic behaviors.
The moment the irreverence was seriously turned on HIS holy cows, minorities, he turned, as expected.
We've seen this before, with Sasha Baron Cohen etc. They wanna dish, but they cannot take any.

I agree with the posters who said the HSS has major potential, but the OP is garbage.

It's really hard to find a lot of HSS stuff though, since Howard turned into a star fucker and having a 50 year old hick saying nigger 10 times a minute in your radio show is a big no-no, none of the pre-2010 segments are ever replayed. All the archives people have are spread apart in 50 different dead torrents and websites by retarded boomers from New York who either transferred it all from tapes they used to record the show as it was live or being sold for ridiculous prices on Ebay. There's hundreds of missing shows, especially from the early 90s and late 80s.

PMRC hearings in 1985, War on Drugs peaked in 1984, Reagan and Bush in 1980 and 1984, then Bush in 1988.

Have you been living under a rock for the last decade? Individualism is a conservative tenant by modern standards.

Agreed

True. He was an absolute degeneracy enabler. His program was little more than a freakshow (tame by modern standards).

The moment the irreverence was seriously turned on HIS holy cows, minorities, he turned, as expected.
We've seen this before, with Sasha Baron Cohen etc. They wanna dish, but they cannot take any.

Yeah. Almost like when the left gained institutional power, the irreverent counter-culture was conservative (or at least right leaning) in nature. And modern counter-culture is 100% conservative. Are you going to call Nick Fuentes, lolcow he may be, a mainstream or respected institution? The culture right now is about policing our words and thoughts. Until the mid 90's that was to please a theistic god. Then it became the secular god of tolerance (with the exception of the years immediately following 9/11).

Well we largely agree on everything minus the part of what is actually right wing. Since we already politisperged a lot and I love politisperging, the right must necessarily be collectivistic IMO, as without the collectivism there is no allegiance to the ethnic group or the nation. Without nationalism, there cannot be a right wing.
Hence I consider individualism, especially that from the US, as a very liberal, atomization producing toxic byproduct of the Cold War paranoia and opposing communism. Which was often far more socially conservative than the "right wing" capitalistic US.
Freedom and Liberty as right wing thought is mostly an American story. The actual right always wanted controls over the individual and over potentially destabilizing factors, like the endless thirst of international capital for cheap labor, often coming from overseas and polluting the national body.

Freedom and liberty aren't right or left wing. Individualism isn't politically right or left. Liberalism is not left wing. It's a value entirely beyond notions of what is right or left. The opposite of conservatism is not liberalism, it's progressivism.
