Let me make this clear - this "leak" was 100% released to radaronline by Opie.
Opie knows he's getting canned, so instead of taking the hit for being a shitty show he's starting to plant the seed of "Howard Stern being the one behind this."
RadarOnline then did a quick google search of Opie to close out their article and found his tarnished online persona regarding the cakestomp, so they tagged that on in the end.
Opie released this to hoping to garner sympathy, but it simply backfired instead.
Yeah this stinks of a press release or intentional leak. He's not really a known guy and they didn't use the term "shock jock" once, and it's the only phrase in there that makes the story relevant. Otherwise the story is about an aging shock-jock who hosts and unpopular show and is getting fired because he's not good at his job. That's not a story, so Opie now needs to put out the story he has running in his head: this is all a plot from Howard Stern, his arch rival who definitely thinks about Opie all the time.
That's exactly what happened, considering how most even partway-reputable places would end the piece with some sort of background or context. They could have ended with a sentence or two about O&A, something about how the show is relatively new, even the fucking Interrobang puts more work into it and this was just some intern who got a tip and it wouldn't surprise me if he sent out the same thing to as many people as possible.
All he has left is that he's a wild troublemaker, which is just sad at this point. He's been trying to re-brand himself ever since Ant was fired, that was the Stangels and that was the Documen-tree show and those weird videos he did with that fat chick. What he has undergone in the past few months is the most public and disrespectful downfall possible, and he's documented a lot of it himself. So now, what? He's trying to be the laid back prankster rollerblading around. He's still Totally Demented and Cannot Be Prevented.
And considering that he was complicit in getting Ant fired (or at the least didn't advocate for him) shows how delusional Opie was about his own abilities. It makes me think that he actually believes that he could have hosted the Tonight Show, or that he gave Matt and Trey their big break. How sad and embarrassed he must be.
This is absolutely how he feels. The pathological insanity of Opie is so well documented at this point it's taken at a given, but we should all remember that during every single big on-air fight it was always Opie who said he was willing to walk away and do his own thing.
During the grape fight he said it repeatedly, he either implied or directly stated many times over years of the show that everyone was holding him back and he was just waiting to be free. These past couple years he's actually tried it and he's failed nearly every time, the most aggravating one for him was probably his inability to make a viral video.
Absolutely, especially about the viral video frustrations. Opie's relationship with Sam changed dramatically when Sam's iPhone video legitimately went viral years ago. At that point Sam went from protege to rival, at least in Opie's mind.
The most ridiculous part - aside from "wildly popular" - is the suggestion that another wave of cakestomp somehow got him in extra dutch this particular time when it's happened a dozen times before.
What a horribly contrived load of shit "story". I can't wait until opie dies.
If Opie has a pay-to-listen podcast, I say we all join for a few months to give him false confidence and a steady income. And then all cancel on the same day to make it all go away, including his wife.
If opie's asap suicide is the end game, this strategy would give about the highest percentages. In a fantasy world anyway. In the real one we wouldn't be able to keep it secret for more than 10 minutes.
howard stern destroyed the OnA show and now has his goons working on destroying the old fan base that remains on this sub. This is all from an inside source.
Just when you think this story has ran out of twists and turns, the public perception or actual reality that Howard came for Opie's head and got him fired is another great turn.
Howard getting him fired is a better narrative than his show went to shit when they fired Anthony, where even his long-time co-host Jim Morton couldn't stand being on it.
Because they didn't. He admitted that he didn't like that his office was too far away from his studio. But he's still sticking with the lie because he thinks it's funny.
Surprised they didn't mention Anthony and his firing, racism, domestic violence, etc. Usually any press Opie gets has included "He was partners with Anthony Cumia for 20 years until...." then it goes into for two paragraphs what a scumbag Ant is.
Although I like how they mentioned the cake-stomp video. That's a nice face kick when he's down.
..."Longtime listeners and disciples of SiriusXM radio’s Gregg “Opie” Hughes — and his wildly popular Opie Radio program".....what fantasy would do they live in?
Nah Opie will use the fake "Howard is out to get me" narrative to land a gig at a NY FM station. So we'll be able to kick him around until the radio station realizes he is bringing in no listeners and has no ratings. Then we can mock him as he slides down to AM in New York state and then to farm reports in Boise Idaho and eventually to him being stuck in a mental asylum by his wife. Opie hate is forever.
I just really needed to point out that Opie isn't "edgy" enough for a firing; just a slow quiet fade into obscurity, despite his kicking and screaming.
Jimmy for 'transphobic' statements. Then when he tries to say how he fucks them they'll say he's just fetishising(sp?) them. Then we'll see him come out to save his job.
Some insiders are pointing to an off-air bit Opie pulled earlier this year when he ventured down the Sirius hallways and had an unsuspecting cleaning woman let him inside Howard Stern‘s studio. Hughes, who later uploaded the bit to YouTube, was inside for 30 seconds before security ushered him out.
“Howard got wind of that really quick and he didn’t like it one bit,” an insider confirmed.
I'm now convinced that Opie is behind this article. No one gave a shit about that 'bit'. He walked in and was removed immediately by security. That's exactly what Howard wants to happen. He didn't "get" Howard. It's not edgey radio.
No one gave a shit about that Howard office 'bit'. He walked in and was removed immediately by security. That's exactly what Howard would want to happen if he tried that shit. He didn't "get" Howard. It's not edgey radio.
The more you think about it the more you realize it's just like stupid opie to think ANYONE out there would have an opinion about it, let alone what his intention was: that it was going to upset all the foundations with its Destroyer-ness.
He's so god damn dumb when it comes to guessing what the mainstream will like and how it will react, it's no wonder his youtube projects are such epic failures.
He's just such a god damn dunce there aren't enough words for it. "I'll drop a bunch of $1 bills around nyc and EVERYONE EVERYWHERE will be talking about me! How could they not!?"
He wants the angle to be edgy shock jock violates the stern no go zone, when it actually is he's such a nobody that he's not allowed in that area. When he did, stern let other people worry about it and paid him no attention.
100%, just as he was behind the planted stories a few months ago when he "broke into Howard's studio". Same publicist, same tactics, literally fake news.
What tipped you off? The "wildly popular OpieRadio" line or "drop the hammer"?
He really is a mongoloid of the highest order and I'm sure he sees this face-saving, "Stern pushed me out, I was doing great" ruse as the height of devious subterfuge.
Fuck him and his recently plastic surgery eye lifted face.
This article was hard to find tucked in between TeenMom's Jenelle Evans cheating scandal and KatePlus8's new weight loss secret. Radar on Line is garbage.
Others say it could be the recent resurfacing of the infamous cake stomping video from 10 years ago, in which Opie stepped on the cake of a New York City homeless man. That resulted in thousands of negative comments on Reddit, as well as tweets and news articles that he’s had to address on his show.
:)
Looks like I picked a good day to get my account back from that Chinese hack.
Welcome to reddit sockcucka! New users are able to submit posts after 2 days. If you think your post is a fair contribution to the subreddit, message the moderators for a faster approval.
Has it been either of those things since Anthony got fired? I suspect the "inside source" is actually Opie himself trying hard to spin his firing before it happens. He knows it's because his show sucks and no one likes it but he wants to it to seem like it's because he's "edgy" maaaaannnnnnnn. He's trying to have some heat and press so that when he gets fired he can jump into terrestrial radio again. Shame he won't be able to spin low ratings and no listeners on that format.
"Controversial" has to come from that nothing of a Howard video. He's almost finished and all he wanted to do in his career was get a reaction from the guy. He never did and he's more desperate to lie to himself now than ever.
I feel bad for Lynsi who probably forces herself to utter "he must really hate your guts, hon!" before tucking him in at night.
I called that last week when jason ellis was talking about it........I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN IT MAKES SENSE..thats funny how they mentioned reddit
sniff First off all I never went into Howards fahkin' office, awwright? Jimmy thought he saw me do something and, I guess just accidently blew it up outta proportion on the radio...

When he did the sneaking into sterns studio thing, he thinks he still has the immunity of the O&A days. Nope, now he's got a shit show with shit ratings and still trying to be a problem child for the suits. His days are numbered.
The Stern thing was a setup for just these kinds of planted stories. He's known his days are numbered since September, that SXM has no intention or re-signing him, so he's trying to make whatever heat he can in the hopes of duping someone else into hiring him.
So basically an "inside source" (ie Opie) called a journalist and said he's getting fired because "it's almost like he pissed off the wrong person", with a link to a story about (((Howard Stern))). The title of this article should be "Delusional shock jock calls journalist, spouts antisemitic conspiracy theories"
Longtime listeners and disciples of SiriusXM radio’s Gregg “Opie” Hughes — and his wildly popular Opie Radio program — are worried that their favorite host’s days are numbered, sources exclusively told RadarOnline.com.
Despite my or anyone else's feelings about Opie, please remember in the context of the journalistic enterprise that is Radar Online, "insider" = online posters with zero actual information.
Still, I hope someone installs C4 in Howard's studio. That guy has been abominable since Artie left, and is an utter prick with a crazed cult defending him.
Opie trying to spin his upcoming dismissal by making it look Howard-orchestrated is a pretty pathetic last-ditch attempt to rekindle buzz for his brand and arouse interest of future employers. He piggybacked on Howard early in his career and is trying to do it at the end out of desperation. The saddest thing of all is that he's surely beaming at this article and basking in the triumph of being a master manipulator.
The saddest thing of all is that he's surely beaming at this article and basking in the triumph of being a master manipulator.
I love the thought of Opie sitting in his apartment thinking about the heat his "brand" is going to get after planting this retarded story and then coming to this thread only to find out that every single one of us saw right through it, which makes him so mad that he sends the River Children to bed without supper.
It's interesting now that tits has his own show he gets so much support on Facebook. Back when he was with Jim and posted something there would be very few comments and likes, but now that he has his own show he gets tons of comments and likes, all praising the show and saying the morning show is shit.
I first saw this article posted by tits himself saying he was going to get to the bottom of this. As of right now, 310 comments and over 250 reactions. All in support. I'm just shocked that all of these fans came out of no where. I wonder how many accounts titties has.
Even after all his bullshit, I still don't fully hate Anthony. However, if he hooks back up with stupid after all the rotten shit he did behind the scenes, I'm going full carltonbanks.
Cool now we can enjoy the Jim & Sam transvestite and mamas boy show, and the Extreme Fag show with Ellis. And the soon to be Your friend's angry dad show with Nick Dipalo. Looks like once Tit's is gone, Faction Talk will be an amazing channel of talk show... HAHAHA Just kidding. Sirius talk has left the building.
He must have done this on purpose, if it's not a work/inside job by the Opester. No way he'd do something as dumb as walking through Howard's office and then post the video not knowing he'd get fired.
It's like he's Madonna's character in Dick Tracy also masquerading as The Blank; including the tits.
Opie always does weird shit when it's contract negotiation time. This could have something to do with that. Or it could be him changing the narrative for his firing, and trying to get a job elsewhere. Instead of Sirius just firing him because his show wasn't doing that well, he was fired because of a feud with Howard. That is a lot better way to go out. And will help him in whatever he decides to do next.
3 listeners? I think you're being a bit generous. Even the Philly crew doesn't listen anymore by this point. Of course, they know their brother-in-law got cucked by a skateboarder.

Not having your contract re-signed ≠ getting fired.

I just really needed to point out that Opie isn't "edgy" enough for a firing; just a slow quiet fade into obscurity, despite his kicking and screaming.

n/a dmix 2017-05-01
I'm now convinced that Opie is behind this article. No one gave a shit about that 'bit'. He walked in and was removed immediately by security. That's exactly what Howard wants to happen. He didn't "get" Howard. It's not edgey radio.
n/a packitchofsositch 2017-05-01
The more you think about it the more you realize it's just like stupid opie to think ANYONE out there would have an opinion about it, let alone what his intention was: that it was going to upset all the foundations with its Destroyer-ness.
He's so god damn dumb when it comes to guessing what the mainstream will like and how it will react, it's no wonder his youtube projects are such epic failures.
He's just such a god damn dunce there aren't enough words for it. "I'll drop a bunch of $1 bills around nyc and EVERYONE EVERYWHERE will be talking about me! How could they not!?"
n/a CGPHStanley 2017-05-01
He wants the angle to be edgy shock jock violates the stern no go zone, when it actually is he's such a nobody that he's not allowed in that area. When he did, stern let other people worry about it and paid him no attention.

n/a Peckahnator 2017-05-01
Opie jokes about getting fired at least 4 times a day. Nothing to see here.
n/a DaveNone 2017-05-01
Wildly popular? Controversial?
Has it been either of those things since Anthony got fired? I suspect the "inside source" is actually Opie himself trying hard to spin his firing before it happens. He knows it's because his show sucks and no one likes it but he wants to it to seem like it's because he's "edgy" maaaaannnnnnnn. He's trying to have some heat and press so that when he gets fired he can jump into terrestrial radio again. Shame he won't be able to spin low ratings and no listeners on that format.
n/a pj530i 2017-05-01
I suspect there were no sources and someone on this sub works for radaronline.
It is too perfectly funny to be real in any way
n/a PhilipMarma 2017-05-01
More likely the whole thing was written and supplied by Opie's publicist.
n/a packitchofsositch 2017-05-01
"Controversial" has to come from that nothing of a Howard video. He's almost finished and all he wanted to do in his career was get a reaction from the guy. He never did and he's more desperate to lie to himself now than ever.
I feel bad for Lynsi who probably forces herself to utter "he must really hate your guts, hon!" before tucking him in at night.

n/a PhilipMarma 2017-05-01
The Stern thing was a setup for just these kinds of planted stories. He's known his days are numbered since September, that SXM has no intention or re-signing him, so he's trying to make whatever heat he can in the hopes of duping someone else into hiring him.

n/a jofreal 2017-05-01
Opie trying to spin his upcoming dismissal by making it look Howard-orchestrated is a pretty pathetic last-ditch attempt to rekindle buzz for his brand and arouse interest of future employers. He piggybacked on Howard early in his career and is trying to do it at the end out of desperation. The saddest thing of all is that he's surely beaming at this article and basking in the triumph of being a master manipulator.
n/a nikolam 2017-05-01
I love the thought of Opie sitting in his apartment thinking about the heat his "brand" is going to get after planting this retarded story and then coming to this thread only to find out that every single one of us saw right through it, which makes him so mad that he sends the River Children to bed without supper.
n/a BumbiBestie 2017-05-01

It's interesting now that tits has his own show he gets so much support on Facebook. Back when he was with Jim and posted something there would be very few comments and likes, but now that he has his own show he gets tons of comments and likes, all praising the show and saying the morning show is shit.
I first saw this article posted by tits himself saying he was going to get to the bottom of this. As of right now, 310 comments and over 250 reactions. All in support. I'm just shocked that all of these fans came out of no where. I wonder how many accounts titties has.

n/a Doc_McCoy79 2017-05-01
He must have done this on purpose, if it's not a work/inside job by the Opester. No way he'd do something as dumb as walking through Howard's office and then post the video not knowing he'd get fired.
It's like he's Madonna's character in Dick Tracy also masquerading as The Blank; including the tits.
n/a Joemomma101 2017-05-01
Opie always does weird shit when it's contract negotiation time. This could have something to do with that. Or it could be him changing the narrative for his firing, and trying to get a job elsewhere. Instead of Sirius just firing him because his show wasn't doing that well, he was fired because of a feud with Howard. That is a lot better way to go out. And will help him in whatever he decides to do next.

Listen to the Radio Gunk podcast if you think Howard puts on superior programming. Sirius/XM is run by starfuckers and ballwashers.
HOWEVER, I'm not defending Opie. I'm merely saying both parties are the same.
