Stern has been counting the days till his contract is up any way. I think people that have listened to him for so long just can't accept the fact that his days of doing a radio show are coming to an end.
In advertising based mediums, there is a big fear of being seen the wrong way by the public.
A handful of years ago, wrestling came under the same fire. Mcmahon was pushing the boundaries of good taste to the edge to try and shock people to watch his program because Nitro was kicking his ass.
He got the audiance back, but then a lot of advertisors started pulling out over fear about how racy the content was getting.
They then toned it down due to that pressure.
Stern could have cleaned up his show a lot in the last years, and it still would have been just as funny. Hes a hard to control guy though and the employers were afraid to reign him in because they had to kiss his ass. Now with his contract coming up, they just aren't going to go deep for him.
