Yes. Is there an echo in here?

Would a person be an idiot for thinking Howard was cause the huge market decline in the terrestrial radio market?
Yup.

let's see, Sirius was a small company with a few thousand subscribers and no hope of survival.. XM was doing well with a few million subscribers and getting more everyday. THEN Sirius hired Howard and they quickly gained millions of new subscribers while xm puttered along gaining a few thousand subscribers, 2 years later, sirius had almost surpassed xm and xm knew they only way to stay afloat was to merge, so that's what they did, kind of. actually sirius bought xm and promptly fired the idiots in management who can only make bad decisions.now subscribers to both services can enjoy their favorite programming, prices have not gone up and if you like what you already had, there is no change. Dopey and Anal are terrified that they are going to be fired, so that's why the insist on feeding false information.
so to sum, up siruis failing, xm succeding. sirius hires Howard. sirius succeding, xm failing.. xm has no hope and merges with siruis. yep, hiring Howard was a really stupid move.

Well, actually they resigned last month so they are not worried about losing their job so they would have no reason to feed false information.

Wow, you can't be that clueless? Are you that Clueless? It's actually kind of funny but sad. I'm sorry fredog, you should really go back and study the events leading up to Sirius taking over XM.

yea,
I'm clueless every thing I said is wrong, xm is doing great hiring howard ruined sirius Dopey and Anal resigned even though they just got a new contract.
I remember when they said Mel had bankrupted cbs by getting the superbowl, they said it was way too expensive and he was an idiot, I guess that didnt work out either.. cbs is in real trouble maybe dopey and anal can save them

One other question Fredog. In the begining of your sum it up comment, why was Sirius failing and XM was succeeding?

Just in, Sirius trading at .14 cents. Way to go Hoo Hoo and Mel. Keep up the good work guys!

Opie and Anthony are being fired... Hmmmm, they'll probably be happy about that since Sirius just signed a new contract with them. Think of all that free money they'll get while they continue to do terrestrial.
