Sirius Canada adds shock jock Howard Stern to its satellite radio lineup
Sirius Canada has confirmed that controversial U.S. radio host Howard Stern will be included as part of the company's 100-channel lineup. Stern debuted on Sirius in the U.S. on Jan. 9 but was not initially included in the Canadian lineup. Sirius Canada launched its subscription service in early December.
In Canada, Stern will be heard on Howard One, but a second channel the shock jock programs with other on-air personalities will not be available here.
Mark Redmond, Sirius Canada president and CEO, said Wednesday that Stern was clearly a powerful force in the entertainment world and that while "he's not to everybody's taste" it was time to add him to the lineup.
