Why Howard Stern is the most credible man in the media.
If I were to evaluate the ethos of a celebrity I would choose Howard Stern. Howard Stern has been one of my favorite members of the media for a long time. Hence, the name King of All Media. I think he would demonstrate the perfect example as having great character and a quality reputation in some audiences and in other audiences not so much. Many times he is often judged by people who don't listen to his show, and they are often highly critical of him and say awful things about him. While people who are fans of his, follow him closely and would purchase any product he were to endorse.
Howard Stern presents himself as a mad man behind a
microphone to the outside world, but there is no doubt what lies beneath the
surface is a highly thoughtful, compassionate and intelligent man. He takes on the persona as reckless and wild
in order to develop publicity in order to gain an audience. Once he has a person's attention, he is able
to maintain it by producing quality opinions and uncommonly humorous
material. If he were all gimmick, he
would not have been able to receive the level of success he has had for over 30
years.
Howard Stern can endorse anything from grooming products to
music and movies and have the product receive great success. Anytime someone is promoting a movie or an
album on his show, minutes after they appear, it will skyrocket up the charts. I have purchased several products he has
endorsed on his show, as well as taken recommendations on movies, TV, radio
show and albums because of him. He has
such great credibility with his audience and me, because he is very open. I don't find myself wondering what is truly on
his mind. He is the only celebrity that
I feel like I truly know and understand.
Whether that is true is up for debate, but that is why he is so
influential to his audience.
