Good if you don't mind...


...that this film is a sanitised account of Howard Stern and what he is and does. I suppose It's kind of diffucult to judge the movie. The producers/writers of the movie obviously edited much of what is repellent about Stern when the script was being put together. I have seen parts of Stern's show in the past on TV here in the UK and I'm talking over ten years ago and I've seen interviews with him so I know something about the man and he is one of the most objectional characters out there. I enjoyed the movie as a semi-autobigoraphical piece of entertainment on im and I don't know why they couldn't have used more actors rather than the real people. But he's been known very often to be a cruel and xenophobic bully who get's off and makes a career on playing on other people's misfortune and misery. Sure, the guests on his show know what to expect from the man but never the less. Make's me wonder how much of an a-hole the unfortunately nicknamed Pig Vomit really was and if It's partially due to Stern's own arrogance and petualence that he was depicted in that way.

Your ignorance of Stern and his show could not be more obvious

How so? I've seen Stern's show in the past and I'd rather you backed up what you said rather than just come on here and point the finger. It only makes you look ignorant.

What is your opinion of his sidekicks? Because they have even lower opinions of Kevin Metheny (the real Pig Vomit) than Stern himself. Apparently, he treated them even worse since they were lower on the totem pole.
