‘Wall To Wall’ Ending Explained: Who Is Making The Noise?
The Howard Stern Show ‘to be canceled’ after nearly 20 years on SiriusXM as ‘$100m’ contract is up later this year
THE ICONIC Howard Stern Show on Sirius XM is set to be canceled after a stunning 20-year run on Sirius XM, sources exclusively told The U.S. Sun.
Stern, 71, who has had a mega-bucks contract for decades at the subscription satellite radio provider, will likely cut some sort of deal for Sirius to keep his catalogue upon his exit, sources said.
“Stern’s contract is up in the fall and while Sirius is planning to make him an offer, they don’t intend for him to take it,” one insider said of the impending end to the shock jock’s latest five-year contract.
“Sirius and Stern are never going to meet on the money he is going to want. It’s no longer worth the investment.”
The insider added that fans may expect Sirius to strike a deal for his library.
“But as far as him coming back to doing the show, there’s no way they can keep paying his salary,” the source said.
“After you saw what happened with Stephen Colbert, it’s like they just can’t afford to keep him going.”
Another source said Stern’s political leanings are also not working in his favor.
“If Sirius isn’t going to give Stern a good offer, I don’t think it would have anything to do with his ratings,” the source claimed. “It’s more likely everything to do with the political climate.”
Stern has been an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump.
Stern famously interviewed presidential hopeful, Vice President Kamala Harris, in the run-up to the 2024 election.
Harris’ decision to appear on Stern’s show was slammed by many Republicans who accused her of after avoiding a number of mainstream media appearances.
Sirius XM and Stern did not respond to The U.S. Sun’s request for comment.
MEDIA ICON
He first rose to fame in the mid-1980s when he launched The Howard Stern Show.
He did a 20-year run with New York City’s WXRK where his show first became nationally syndicated into 60 markets with 20 million listeners at its peak.
Stern moved over to SiriusXM in 2006 and has been there ever since.
While he first cut his teeth as a shock jock, discussing all sorts of taboo topics, later in his career, Stern became known for his in-depth celebrity interviews.
From Lady Gaga opening up about her past drug addiction, to Courtney Cox popping in at the last minute and opening up about her failing marriage to David Arquette, Stern was able to get usually guarded celebs to say much more than likely anyone expected.
OTHER BUSINESS VENTURES
Outside of his long standing, lucrative radio career, Stern created a blockbuster movie, Private Parts, which was a wild autobiography of his rise to fame.
In the 1997 flick, Stern famously aired his gripes with previous employers, including, and especially, WNBC.
Stern has also published several books, including the book form of his autobiography, Private Parts.
He was also a judge on America’s Got Talent from 2012 to 2015.
Stern is married to Beth Ostrosky, 53.
He was previously married to Alison Berns from 1978 to 2001, and they share three daughters: Emily, Debra and Ashley.
Veteran ESPN and SportsCenter star announces surprise exit from network as he releases ‘hurt’ statement
A VETERAN ESPN star has announced his surprise exit from the network.

“After two remarkable runs at the network, I’ll once again be charting a different course come October,” he said on X.
“What will it look like this time? Right now, I’m not sure.
“For the first time since college, I’m a full-fledged free agent.
“Transparently, my emotions have run the gamut the past several weeks.
“There’s been hurt, disappointment, joy, genuine happiness, the highest optimism and excitement for what’s to come.
“Biting doubt about my ability to still thrive in a murky industry that for years has cornered the market on uncertainty.
“Just being real. Beyond all of that, though, the overarching emotion I’ve felt is gratitude.”
Harvey made regular appearances on the 6pm version of SportsCenter.
He also provided content for ESPN.com and their digital platforms.
