Parton "shocked" at Howard Stern radio segment
Wed May 14, 2008
                                        
NEW YORK (Billboard) - Country music star Dolly Parton has hit back against Howard Stern's satellite radio show, which last week manipulated recordings from one of her audio books into seemingly racist and sexually graphic sound bites.

"I have never been so shocked, hurt and humiliated in all my life," Parton said in a statement on Wednesday. "I cannot believe what Howard Stern has done to me. In a blue million years, I would never have such vulgar things come out of my mouth. They have done editing or some sort of trickery to make this horrible, horrible thing. Please accept my apology for them and certainly know I had nothing to do with this."

She concluded: "If there was ever going to be a lawsuit, it's going to be over this. Just wanted you to know that I am completely devastated by this."

"The Howard Stern Show" frequently utilizes audio book recordings in this fashion; altered clips from "Star Trek" actor George Takei became a staple of the program in recent years.

Couldn't agree more.  Howard Stern is as funny as a car crash.  What's the audience he is after 14-18 year old males?

Howard is clever - not that bright.

For some of us, it is to our advantage to grow up.

Dolly has always had a good sense of humour about herself.  The fact that she isn't laughing tells me enough.

Exactly my first thought.  Dolly has one of the best senses of humour in the entertainment industry, so if SHE ain't laughin', then it ain't funny...

I am addicted to the Howard Stern Show












































The greatest most outrageous show on Satellite radio, and it is certainly better then the crap on regular radio
