Howard Stern is back from his two week vacation, but not in the five markets where Citadel Communications had been broadcasting the shock jock's show.
For the past two weeks 95X (WAQX) has been airing bits of the Opie and Anthony Show instead of Stern repeats, but with Stern's return this morning, Citadel Communications has decided not to air the show. According to Stern, Citadel chief Farid Suleman is asking for payment of $200,000 for all of Stern's on-air mentions of Sirius Satellite Radio.
