3 Full page ads in the NY Times listing all the content on Sirius XM. But no mention of the buddays Howard,bubba,OnA.etc. No respect at all. Bastards.
I'm going to protest by not buying a copy of their useless paper.

So if Howard, O&A, etc, aren't mentioned, what makes you think R&F should be?
Yeah, it sucks, and they should get more press, but one of the nice things about R&F is their ability to be under the radar. It gives it a more inclusive feel.

Actually that's a typo by me all those others ARE mentioned as are Martha Stewart blue collar comedy seems like most everyine else. I agree though about Ron and Fez being under the radar is a good thing but I'd still like them get some props.

Well, here's my second question - was the channel mentioned by name "The Virus with Opie and Anthony" or just straight up "Opie and Anthony"?
Because if Bubba got love and R&F didn't, then that DOES suck.
Here's the real question: Was Ferrall mentioned? Because if he did, then you'll have a gripe.

It's ok, no one reads the NY Times anymore anyway. There's a reason it's on the verge of folding.

I can understand the ad listing all of the other personalities except for Buba the Love Sponge. He has no history in NYC, whereas Ron and Fez do.

You are correct on that. That's something I didn't realize - if this was an ad in USA Today, I could see Bubba getting in there. Bubba is "known" because of his firing issues and other crap.
But R&F are very well known in NYC. If the ad was a national buy or something, or the ad wasn't customized for local markets, i.e. they ran the same ad in LA, Chicago, etc... I could see what happened.

To be honest, the only time I've ever heard Bubba The Love Sponge was when O&A were playing clips of him some time ago.
I have no problem with R&F flying under the radar, but I have emailed XM and let them know that they are the only reason I keep my service.

Comment from Crazed -"I'm in the paper with the waper and the saper with a zaper."

While I enjoy O&A I wouldn't have XM if it wasn't for Ron and Fez. The day I heard they signed with XM was the day I signed up for XM.

The boys should do their own advertising campaign in which they steal air time by having crazy listeners jump on reporters during live spots... :)

Fuck Sirius Canada for not allowing RF program to air. Instead Mr. Bighead Stern keeps his two channels. I bought a car that came with sirius, big mistake. Thankfully, i have my ole reliable Xm where RF is available in canada. They are the only reason i keep my subscription. If only they can do away with 9HRS of O&A Repeats. They are a fruitless bunch of has beens, with no entertainment value. I'm not sure why people are attracted to them.

You can pick up a New York Times pretty much any place (blue state) in America.
On the other hand (while I have no scientific proof to back it up) I would tend to think a Ron and Fez fan would be a lot likelier to be a New York times reader then a Bubba fan.

Ron and Fez are the only reason I would pony up cashola for radio. I'm usually scroogish, but they bring out the big spender in me. :wub:

Along the same lines I have both satelite services and here far more advertising for the "sirius" douche bags on xm than our buddays on their shitty network.

I would love Ron & Fez to get a bigger name but as long as they remain on XM I will be happy -- or anywhere that I can hear them for that matter.

i would love to see how ron and fez ratings compare to the rest of the shows.
I know sirius would never publish the ratings...but we have to be in top 10-20 channels?
I hope so
