Conspiracy Theories
In the April 28 edition of the Boston Herald, reporters Gayle Fee and Laura Raposa wrote that conspiracy theorists say that Roth was never intended to successfully replace Howard Stern. Supposedly, CBS Radio wanted to hire Opie and Anthony all along but could not because...
- Stern dislikes Opie and Anthony, and would have spent the last six months of his show slagging on them
- Stern liked Roth, and approved of his take-over
- Management at CBS Radio (then called Infinity Broadcasting) believed that whoever replaced Stern was doomed. An insider at CBS Radio was quoted as saying to the Boston Herald reporters that, "He (Roth) looked good to Wall Street and they gave him a real shot. They would have loved for him to succeed but he wasn’t a radio guy."

Famous quotes containing the words conspiracy and/or theories:
“America is a vast conspiracy to make you happy.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“Whatever practical people may say, this world is, after all, absolutely governed by ideas, and very often by the wildest and most hypothetical ideas. It is a matter of the very greatest importance that our theories of things that seem a long way apart from our daily lives, should be as far as possible true, and as far as possible removed from error.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
