Mixed feelings about this. What a tragic, tragic day. I’ve only watched through that video one time and it’s awful. Can you hold it against Stern for calling the terrorists towelheads and advocating for nuclear war and genocide? Considering the circumstances? I don’t know. But I had no interest in him as a person or an entertainer after listening to that clip. It’s also puzzling to see someone watching such a disaster unfold on their city, whilst merrily advocating for the same and then some for another city. Many born after 9/11 don’t get it. There’s better versions of that clip with visuals which unfortunately add necessary shock context.
