Howard Stern and the First Amendment
Howard Stern and the First Amendment
04/09/2004 07:55 PMThe odious Clear Channel radio barony's firing of
Howard Stern only puts a period at the end of the sentence. The
people who run that company are contemptible, because their action
combines flagrant politics and cowardice -- quite a combination.
But save your real contempt for the FCC, its cowardly chairman, Michael
Powell, and his craven colleagues. Egged on by a Congress that has
shown frightening disdain for free speech, the FCC has gone on its
only holy war against "indecency." (If any of this bothers you, please
contact the FCC and say
so.)
What's indecent is rankly political and financial motives that spit on
the First Amendment. Stern,
as I've noted, is not my cup of tea. But I'll support advertisers who
support him in the future.

Gawker mutter into
their Xantinis:
America's public enemy #1, radio-dude Howard
Stern, made an off-hand remark on this morning's show -- he claims he
writes a secret weblog. Stern said he writes as "another character"
and that only "about 4 people are in on the joke." OK, he's almost
certainly not Rance,
who repeatedly claims to be an actor and not a fat guy eating Twinkies
in his basement, laughing at a credulous, gossip-starved public.
If anyone out there has candidates for what might be Stern's secret
blog, let us know -- if the blogger brags about hurling prosciutto at
a stripper's ass, that might be a tip-off.

Howard Stern's anti-Bush
rhetoric may be more influential than people think. With all the
extra media attention that a half a million dollars worth of FCC fines
can garner, it looks like Howard's rearing up against George. It's
weird to see an article like this after how pro-war and pro-Bush the
Stern show was after 9-11. (Free registration required, ctnow.com)

07/13/2004 01:39 PMHoward Rheingold, author of

books about the social effects of new technologies, recounts his
frustrating customer service experience when he took his broken Treo
600 to Sprint:
[T]he indifferent young man I talked to at the Sprint
store in the Bonair shopping center in San Rafael, California then
said that they didn't do repairs or diagnostics and didn't know who
did. He actually SURFED THE WEB to give me the phone number of Palm.
So I called Palm, who told me they could deal with everyone's Treo 600
except Sprint's. They directed me to a third party repair service
whose voicemail sends you to the web.

We just got back from the XM press conference at CES and we got to ask
him two questions -- we made them zingers of course: Question one:
“What impact do you think Howard Stern going to Sirius is going to
have on your business, and how close did you come to signing him?”
As you can see from his expression he was really excited about
answering this one).
Question two: “Dr. Laura over the past couple of years said that gay
people are biological errors. You talked before about decisive
programming (i.e. Stern), I wonder what XM’s position is on hate
speech was and if you condone it. And why would you associate yourself
with her after you said you wouldn’t associate with Howard Stern
because of controversy issues. Are you going to lose subscribers, and
do you feel gay people are biological errors?”

02/15/2004 09:28 AMConfessions of an iPod owner
Confessions of an iPod owner
01/04/2005 11:07 AMSo, I've been an
iPodder for two weeks now. I
have never before owned a portable music player - not a Walkman, not a
CD player, nothing. The closest thing so far has been my
laptop, to
which I attach myself using an umbilical^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Haudio cable.
And it's been fun. But with the iPod Mini, I can take my music now
everywhere!
Or so one would think.
I have noticed some interesting... issues in this while iPod thing.
Let me recount a few of them:
- First of all - this thing is damned inconvenient: The headphone
wires get trapped in a multitude of latches and notches and creases
and folds I didn't even know that my jacket has. In the end, I
am crouching down to avoid the headphones from being ripped off my
head while furiously trying to reel the wire out of my jacket.
Perhaps I should live in California - portable players are definitely
not designed for winter clothing.
- The volume is too loud or too soft. This is entirely a matter of
ambient noise: when I'm walking on the street, the car noise drowns
out any music - in the office the music is too loud for my ears. And
yeah, I've heard of volume control. The thing just is that if I were
to drown the street noises (75+ dB), with noise that's 20 dB more, I
would almost certainly get permanent hearing loss. I'm sure Spinsteri can fill
you in on the interesting details.
- (And I do have a pair of noise-canceling headphones.
Unfortunately, they're so big that they really make problem 1 and 3
stand out - not to mention problem 4.)
- People look at me strangely when I'm jamming to a particularly
good tune. I seem to be completely unable to listen to music as just
"background noise". I'm currently typing this text to the
exact rhythm of Schiller's Glück und Erfüllung...
- Loss of awareness. I've noticed I'm far less aware of my
surroundings - and in the urban jungle, this is dangerous, potentially
even fatal. For many years, I trained myself to notice everything -
and now I'm deliberately muting down my only omnidirectional sense.
- Overall strangeness of standing in the slushy Helsinki, waiting
for a tram, and having the image of Kylie Minogue's butt bouncing
before my (mental) eyes as she sings inside my head the song
Can't get you out of my head NO! I CAN'T GET YOU OUT
OF MY HEAD! GO AWAY!
- The fact that even with automatic intelligence, song scoring,
hand-crafted playlists - the damned thing still does not play exactly
the music I want at that instant! Why is it playing Kate Bush if I
want to listen to CMX?
- In my daily schedule, there are very few instances that I am not
with my laptop or a TV or a CD player or any other source of music.
In fact, the only times are while I'm on the street or shopping - and
on those occasions it's too noisy to use it. So the only reason to
have it is to listen to music while jogging (or going to the gym,
which I have simply not managed to do ever since an unpleasant
experience 14 years ago).
- 4GB is surprisingly plenty to keep all my music - and therefore I
come to realize how single-sided and boring my music tastes really
are...
I guess all this comes from the jarring realization (spawned by this
brilliant Slashdot comment) that I don't need a portable music
player - never have, never will. Nobody needs a portable
music player. Apple has understood this, and is extraordinarily
expertly creating a cult of "want" around a small silvery
box. The iPod is well-engineered, I grant you that, but so are many
other MP3 players. It integrates really nicely into iTunes, and is
very usable.
But an iPod is still a complete and utter vanity item. Apple has
managed to do what every single brand maker in the world sees wet
dreams about (aside from Kylie Mino
