story is half way down.

I heard on CNN that Howard is going to be paid $100 Million per year

wow!

Wall Street Journal reports, a total deal worth $500 Million, watch the video clip the CEO of Sirius explains the deal very well.

The budget for "the show" is $100 million a year, with Howard getting $20 millions, plus stock and revenue sharing ...if certain goals are met.

From sirius's press release:

Total production and operating costs for the Stern show, including compensation of the show cast and staff, overhead, construction costs for a dedicated studio, and a budget for the development of additional programming and marketing concepts, is estimated to be approximately $100 million per year.

I heard on the radio that he was getting a total of $250 million for 5 years.

the total 5 year deal is worth $500 Million, I am assuming that includes Howard's salary, but not 100% sure.

Also Joseph Clayton CEO Sirius, said that there WILL be advertising on Howard Stern show on Sirius, the commercial free programming only applies their dedicated music stations.

Talk, Sports and News stations on Sirius all have advertisers.

damn this is gonna be HUGE!!!!!!

Good watch, thanks for posting

Great post! It's a keeper. :hw:

I didn't know Vinnie Favale was the CEO of Sirius :p

cool!

Shit! I have DirecTV...Sirius is on Dish.

I think that Sirius CEO, Joseph Clayton (who lines his corporate pockets), looks more like Roger Ebert than Vinnie.

BTW, some of my friends say that I'm an moron with poor reading comprehension and the inability to understand basic math, but I don't know what they are talking about.
