re: That last deal was bigger than SIRI getting Howard Stern."
WOW; don't use that deal as a comparison with GTE... SIRI stock is still in the bucket, even with Stern. Unless something profound happens next week I don't see him adding much value to SIRI.
Yes, there was a run on that stock with the announcement but within a few days its SP was back in the toilet where it was before, if not lower . . . I know, I'm still sitting on some of it, waiting for a breakeven point to dump it!...
