"Let's Talk" is the conversation thread for chit chat and everything else among CFers. Keri has suggested this to separate out the conversations in the "What's on your mind?" thread. We will see if this takes off or dies.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I like Howard Stern because he's blunt and honest. He's pervy, because he's honest about how he feels and thinks. The show can also be quite funny, although when Artie left, the show has fallen apart.
Howard Stern has influenced me a lot.

Simple, he is a shock jock. Its what no talent hosts do to make it in the world of radio.
People listen that find "shock" humor funny and then there are those that listen to get offended, because people LOVE having someone or something to complain about.

Howard Stern is actually one of the most influential and innovative radio personalities of all time.
He started in the late 70's and early 80's and was a trail blazer at the time. Many of his programs are also honestly funny. Like homeless Jeopardy. Where they get actually homeless guys to play Jeopardy.

Fans can say what they want about the man being a trailblazer... whatever. The man isn't funny, but that is why we all have our own separate opinions.
Even IF he is a trailblazer for radio.... okay? and that has given us such gems as.....? MOST of the hosts on radio and TV sell mindless drivel... IF that is what he trail blazed.
So what, how is how many oranges a stripper can fit in her mouth humorous or trailblazing? The guy is the radio version of Jerry Springer, which is fine if you like that stuff.... but don't try and sell him as more than what he is.
