| Hanger-On Registered: Feb. 01  | from Drudge's site... **Exclusive** Top CBS executives are eyeing radiojock Howard Stern as a replacement for David Letterman if the latenight host jumps to ABC, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. While CBS suits have grown more convinced in recent hours that Letterman will stay at the network -- a contingency plan to launch Stern in the slot has been secretly developed, a top source said from New York. "Stern is at the very top of a very short list," said the insider. The Stern/CBS talks are being described as "serious" -- with Stern's agent Don Buchwald said to be on the phone nearly "non-stop" with the network. But Stern has already become a controversial replacement choice -- with senior excutives split on the possible move. "We will have trouble with the advertisers, like we did on the weekends!" argued a top suit. "We would make more money by running best of CSI!" While executives quickly pound out the pros and cons, CBSVIACOM head Mel Karmizan has signed off on exploring the Stern option. The network has also quietly reached out to [COMEDY CENTERAL's DAILY SHOW host] Jon Stewart to fill any late night void, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. [CBS previously had Stewart under contract to replace Tom Synder, but eventually opted for Craig Kilborn.] According to sources, CBSENTERTAINMENTSPORTSNEWS President Les Moonves, in New York City attempting to resolve any Letterman defection, has now forgiven Stern for his on-air rants last fall -- after Moonves pulled the plug on the jock's Saturday Night TV show. "Les Moonves is a snake and nobody should do business with him. He's such a snake. He's a snake in the grass, but I always knew that. He's like all the others. He's worse, because he's got that pretty face. What a snake," Stern declared. "Less audience! Les the creep. Doin' a good job, came in fourth. I hate him. I don't want to talk to him ever again in my life. I don't want to see the man. I can't stand him." | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | Why would CBS look towards howard for a latenight weekly show when his saturday show got cancelled because of low ratings? and I am willing to bet that Letterman doesn't move. "It appears my wee wee has been strucken with rigor mortis." | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00 | Yeah, uh huh, the get rid of him in their graveyard of a Saturday night slot, only to put him in to their regular late night gig. Highly unlikely, especially since Letterman's probably not leaving CBS (its called a leverage ploy, everything dealing with radio knows all about that.) | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I thought this was the O&A message board but lately it's become anything but.with that said Howard has had little success with a network show he was cancelled on channel 9 the fox show he was devolping was never aired,and the cbs broadcast of his E show was cancelled. | ||||

| Hanger-On Registered: Mar. 02 | What is CBS thinking? That slot is made for Oral and Anally. They be the bomb! :cool: CBS needs to put O&A there. Let's be getting the Army ready to storm the headquarters and place are boys in Letterman's seat. I saw my sister's boobies last night. :confused: Norton eats my bung. | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | according to drudge Stern will take the time slot "if the money is right." Also if Stern doesn't take it they'll go immediately to Don and Mike because Don and mike rules and like Don and Mike are kewler than O&A could ever be cause Don and Mike get ratings in Washington and they're funnier since O&A just rip off and Don and Mike are just so funny- I mean it's a sound and you have to guess what is it. Don and Mike rule!!! "It appears my wee wee has been strucken with rigor mortis." | ||||

| Hanger-On Registered: Oct. 00 | would never happen, stern and CBS had a big falling out after they cancelled his late night show. Besides they would want someone senior citizens and pre-teens find non-threating. Like Jim Norton. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Well, I guess Stern will just have to wait for that premium, late-night gig :) | ||||
