12. Not by a long shot

When Howard Stern signed on to Sirius-XM, he gave away a ton of radios to his audience and troops overseas (with free subscriptions for the troops). With subscription prices going down, there would be no change in his listening audience. Howard Stern's detractors still complain about him to this day and even media will catch wind of his antics. It will be no different if Rush moves there, and Rush would maybe even get worse without any FCC authority. Hell, Fox News is on Sirius-XM even in Canada (they are not suppose to by Canadian law). I believe that since Sirius-XM is broadcasting through a satellite that we taxpayers paid for, they should be regulated through FCC. Rush's ilk needs to be silenced once and for all.
