Howard Stern has postponed a highly anticipated announcement regarding his SiriusXM show, leaving listeners in continued suspense.
The host was scheduled to address his future on Tuesday morning, following weeks of promotional teasers and widespread speculation that his show was ending. The rumors began a month ago when a report claimed that Stern and SiriusXM would be unable to reach an agreement on a new contract.
In response, Stern’s team fueled the drama with a promotional campaign. “The tabloids have spoken: Howard Stern fired, canceled,” a narrator declared in a SiriusXM ad. “Chaos is swirling at The Howard Stern Show… all the questions will be answered, all the truths will be told by the one man truly on the inside. Howard Stern will speak Tuesday, September 2.”
However, in an early Tuesday social media post, the show announced a last-minute change. “Howard Stern will now speak Monday, September 8,” the statement read, urging fans to “stay tuned.”
This sudden delay deepens the uncertainty surrounding the host’s future. While Stern’s contract negotiations have been contentious in the past, he has consistently secured deals to remain on the air. The postponement could suggest that an agreement is still being finalized or that talks have broken down entirely.
