Howard Stern broke his silence months after a mass layoff of his radio show staff.
"I've never had a summer where I was treated so well in the press," Howard, 72, said sarcastically during his Monday, September 14, season premiere of Sirius XM's The Howard Stern Show, The U.S. Sun reported. "It was so positive. I can't believe it. I can't tell you how many different people have called me a scumbag."
As Globe previously reported, the shock jock has faced backlash for reducing his show to just one episode per week and making a lucrative deal to stream it on HBO Max — amid massive staff layoffs.
Some former employees also spoke out, claiming they were told not to speak to him at company parties, telling the U.S. Sun that "people have actually gotten fired for it."
"I'm the one who pays for the Christmas party, and then they throw a big party, and I don't let anybody look at me,"Howard sarcastically added on Monday.
