Stern Back in Markets Where He Was Axed

[GreenPartyVoter]

NEW YORK - Howard Stern announced Wednesday that his syndicated morning show would appear in nine new markets, including four where his show was axed by the nation's largest radio chain for alleged indecency.

Stern said his program would air on stations in Houston; San Diego; Tampa, Fla.; Pittsburgh; Orlando, Fla.; Austin, Texas; West Palm Beach, Fla.; Rochester, N.Y.; and Fresno, Calif., all owned by Infinity Broadcasting.

Clear Channel Communications suspended Stern in February and dropped the country's best-known shock jock from its stations in Rochester, Orlando, San Diego, Pittsburgh and two other markets after complaints by federal regulators.

In early June, Clear Channel agreed to a record $1.75 million settlement with the Federal Communications Commission (news - web sites) to resolve indecency complaints against Stern and other radio personalities.

Good for him.
