Howard Stern has signed a new contract with SiriusXM, ending speculation he might walk away from satellite radio, as he once did from broadcast, and try his hand at Internet radio.
The agreement calls for Stern to host “The Howard Stern Show” on SiriusXM for another five years. The 12-year deal also includes developing a video-streaming service with the help of his vast audio and video library, according to a statement Tuesday. At almost 62, Stern remains one of the top rainmakers in American radio a decade after leaving broadcast.
