So Stern goes to satellite radio so he can say anything. Oops. He might be
Sirius-ly censored...

Howard Stern may be coming down with a Sirius case of the bleeps.
High-level executives of the satellite broadcaster are developing an
internal standards-and-practices document that will set boundaries for
Stern and other shock jocks, The Post has learned.

"It's something that's being taken very seriously," a Sirius source
said. Stern's new show also is being broadcast on a time-delay, giving
him the opportunity to censor the program — which he already has done.
Stern moved to Sirius in part because satellite-radio services such as
Sirius and XM — unlike free terrestrial radio — are not policed by the
FCC, which spent years waging an indecency war against him.
