Howard Stern *claims* to be ‘King of all Media’, yet fails miserably at it (or even understanding *what* media is).

Steve Jobs makes no claims, but by his actions *IS* KoaM, as he managed to not just dominate, but understands it.

Get it right.

You’re right, Chad — although I think she was referring to him in the present tense rather than he “will be” the king.

Well, I know one thing for sure. Steve Jobs is the King of All Black Turtlenecks.

For the uninformed, Disney is the parent of ABC, ESPN, and various other networks and movie houses.

Disney recently decided to purchase Pixar from Jobs in an all stock deal. Jobs will take about 3.5 billion from the deal and becomes the principle stockholder of Disney. Thus, Jobs will have a tight grip on the company and its holdings. This is what I assume Kim Masters was referring to.

(My mom has a serious, inexplicable vendetta against Howard Stern — not that I love the guy. I’m 24 and she still forbids me from watching his TV show when I come home.)

What exactly is Howard Stern’s appeal?
