They are in a Catch-22.

If they re-sign with Infinity everyone would be like "oh, they were going to resign the whole time and just did it for the radio like Stern...those faggots." I personally believe the pushing it to the wire is real and that they really might not re-sign.

If they DON'T resign and have to wait to go on the air. Howard will proclaim himself victor once again as he destroyed another competitor (same station, different timeslot but in the same genre=competitor). Some fans will lose interest and forget about them in the interval and some might be pissed with them for leaving.

Judging by O&A comments about Jay & Ant's Stern impersonations its a done deal and they are staying.

I was thinking the same thing, but we'll soon find out - could the heinous gag order be lifted? Either way, today's show (the last hour or so that I caught) was a goddamn riot! Bra-fucking-O O&A!

On behalf of the O&A Army I shall stand up and make an announcement. We are armed and ready, Martial Law has taken effect and with the orders from our Supreme Commanders we will begin our war. If the airwaves are taken out, we must connect to this website for further instructions. Soldiers, be on the alert and be ready for War!
This is Gagootz, over and out.

Just keep in mind only MODS can call a war. Besides, I get this feeling that tomorrow will be a very good day.

IF everything they say is true then it's a no brainer for them to leave WNEW. If they try and make them stay there then they fucking walk, stay off the air for 3 months, come back on a new station for a new comapany. ( I hope its that easy)
Fuck lame Wnew and the assfucks telling them to stay were they are. It's in there best intrests to leave Infinity.

Oh yea!

Hi everyone, long time O&A fan, 1st time poster here ("quack quack"). Anyway, I was in Vegas over the weekend and just got back tonight, and thus wasn't able to hear any of this weeks shows. From the posts here it seems I missed some good stuff, but oh well.
Anyway, my 2 cents on the whole situation is this. It seems like until Howie is out of power, Opie and Anthony are never going to get a decent break at Infinity.. anyone else see the similarities to the whole situation in WCW before it collapsed and Vince McMahon bought it? Big, established (yet-over the hill or nearly-so) money-making acts, doing everything in their power to keep the younger, hipper more talented performers from sharing in the spotlight in a desperate attempt to hold onto their former glory. Sound familiar?

I know there's no way the Boyz can win out over Stern anytime soon, due to his huge (formerly deserved) popularity.

Okay... umm, how do you figure?

Rome wasn't built in a day. Hell, Stern wasn't built in a day. It took him a good while to overtake Imus, and it'll probably take O&A a while to take Stern.



Just because Stern bashes Imus on a daily basis, doesn't mean that it's warranted. Imus has changed his show considerably to appeal to an older audience (much like Stern is changing his show to appeal to angry divorced millionnaires). Imus's appeal is valuable to Infinity (to capture the 50+ year old people), and he has some serious political commentary on his show that can't be heard anywhere else.

I figure the ages of the listeners are probably:

Disney Radio - 0-13 years years
O&A - 13-35 years old
Stern - 35-55 years old
Imus - 55-death

Does anybody else think that the gag order had a lot to do with how scared WNEW's management was of Stern? I know that Stern lost it when O&A announced that some band was going to be on Stern (it was supposed to be a secret). Is it possible that Ken Stevens "over-corrected" and stopped any mention of Stern, instead of bargaining with his management to reach a sensible solution??

I don't think the contract is done by any means; revert back to opening of show with Opie ranting about infinity saying they might force them back.

I think it is more on line with Syndication - the non-negotiable issues, so that here or elsewhere they will not be gagged.

From what I heard yesterday during the last hour seemed like they were staying and the gag order was going to be lifted. That doesn't mean they signed but they could have extended negotiations and may not sign by today.
On another note: don't you think the whole gag order thing could have been infinty scared about not re-signing Stern, but now that they have him they can reneg in hopes of keeping another show with them?

Anyone just hear Ron and Fez?

They said "Yes, Opie and Anthony are here. But we must cherish our time with them" or something like that--- only half listening

Doesn't sound to good, does it.

Kansei, you obviously don't have a fucking clue...

1) IMUS USED TO BE ABOVE STERN. Yeah man, Imus actually used to be the big thing. Stern came along and beat him out. I was talking about that, not about how Stern continues to bully Imus. Stern does that cause he knows he can't beat REAL competition.

2) STERN MADE THE GAG ORDER HAPPEN. Stern contacted the right people (probably Mel Karmizan, the "guy down south" who Ant does the impression of - Mel is Ken/Jeremy's boss). Then the gag order came down from Mel to Ken, and Ken had to make it happen. But remember, the order originally came from the pussy Stern himself - it wasn't about Ken trying to save face.
