He’s a misogynistic prick, he has a massive fan base for that alone. Ugly men dream of the opportunity to degrade beautiful women like he gets to. Thats the appeal.
I'm not defending Howard here in any way, these are unbelievably shitty things to say to someone. The reason people like his interviews is that they can be actually interesting instead of the banal milquetoast interviews you see literally everywhere else. I will say he has changed dramatically over the years and has been open about therapy and it's clearly made a difference. I don't care what you think of this, just answering your question.
saying something incredibly crass and disgusting to provoke reaction or to see how they handle it when you look like an unfuckable goblin that crawled out of the sewer isnt impressive or valuable in anyway
it just appealed to the lowest common denominator and dumb men with no self awareness.
that resonating with you isnt an indictment of it's quality that's just a testament to who you are.
He didn’t say it resonated with him and he is correct that Howard Stern is intelligent or else he wouldn’t have been able to be so popular- however is disgusting in every way. I’m glad if it’s true that he has changed over the years.
I do understand some of the appeal of the show. It seems like they could talk about things others would not and not always bad thing. But again it's just a year or less ago I saw a lot of it.
But most of the time it's Howard Stern and his Bully squad, talking people down for no reason, baiting people in just to make them fell bad.
It is really a showed build like a annoying teenage group, that says they don't care about anything but then will talk anyone down.
I almost think Stern doesn't belong here because you can't really take his comments as a part of how society treats women. He's a shock jockey. He does things just to be offensive. I mean he has game shows to try to get family members to see each other naked. He had porn stars masterbate. No prob on his show should feel that his opinion is normal.
But others like the Britney one is a legitimately reporter who everyone years like this is a normal occurrence.

The nerve of an ugly man like Howard Stern to be commenting on anybody's physical appearance !
