Artie Lange resigns from the Howard Stern show!!

Could this be for real? Artie Lange has been a fixture on the Stern show since coming on x years ago. The man is a comical genius but his erratic behavior has gotten him into trouble throughout his tenure on the show. A "recovering" drug and alcohol abuser many fans including myself believe that the Howard Stern Show actually helped Artie stay out of trouble. Either way things didn't sound to good today and I actually believe that this could be the end of Artie Lange, both on the show and off it.

Artie, if you're out there, "Come back to us! We love you man!"

From the link (after Artie had a dispute with an assistant):
Stern then expressed his feelings on the situation, saying he cannot condone Lange's actions. The comedian, who has had a similar outburst on the air in the past, said he cannot guarantee he can refrain from acting out in the future. Upon hearing that, Stern said he cannot have Lange around with the potential of such actions looming.

Artie then offered his resignation; Stern accepted, but told Lange to leave and cool off. Just before Lange left he told Stern: "I'm not a good person ... I gotta leave ... I love you"

Teddy returned to the studio several minutes later and said there was overreacting from everyone, but did not downplay the seriousness of the situation.

Show producer Gary Dell'Abate came in to analyze the situation, but he and Stern admitted they "did not know what to make of it all."

Stern does not host a live show on Fridays and the crew is on vacation next week. Could this be for real? Artie Lange has been a fixture on the Stern show since coming on x years ago. The man is a comical genius but ... more
