Howard Stern: King of All Media

Everyone listens to Howard Stern, from trash collectors to CEOs. Stern's popularity knows no bounds--his radio show is syndicated nationwide, he is a best-selling author, and host of annual pay-per-view extravaganzas. Now, Paul Colford, acclaimed Rush Limbaugh biographer and radio columnist for Newsday, chronicles the rise of the king of shock jocks from his humble beginnings to his battles with the FCC, his fascination with transcendental meditation and obsession with sex! 2 cassettes.

Howard Stern talks about himself on his syndicated radio show 5 days a week, 4 hours a day. Howard Stern already has published two best-selling books based on his life and career. This leaves very little of interest for the author to say about Stern who, after all, is popular partly because he blabs so freely about his own (married) sex life and the mundane humiliations of his past. Colford flips the coin and bets the reader will be interested to hear how NORMAL and NOT shocking the shock-jock's life really is. Some will be more interested than others.
