Stereotype of the Month Entry
(5/28/00)


Another response to the Stereotype of the Month entry on Howard Stern, Son of a Beach:

Rob:
>> As I said in my conclusion, viewership for Son of the Beach declined 19% for the second episode, another 6% for the third episode, and a whopping 30% for "Love, Native-American Style." <<

Jackie:
>> Yet the show rebounded by it's 4th episode but you could care less by that fact since you just want to trash Stern. <<

Not according to the facts I cited above. Perhaps you mean the fifth episode?

>> What happened, did he hang up on you when you called into the show? <<

No. What happened is that I've been criticizing the stereotyping of minorities for the last ten or so years. This was a prime example of said stereotyping, so I gave it my attention.
