Patrick Reilly Quotations

When we announced Howard's plan to come to SIRIUS back in fall 2004, we had about 700,000 subscribers. At the end of 2005, a week before he began his first show with SIRIUS, our number of paid subscribers had reached 3.3 million.

Lynn is a Mount Mercy girl. Her husband, Tom, who is also here tonight, and I are Timon guys. Incidentally, Kevin and Tom grew up together in South Buffalo. They haven't seen each other in 25 years since they were at Holy Family on Tifft Street together.

One of our most popular channels is 'Sirius Hits,' which plays the most popular songs in high rotation. But we have other channels, like bluegrass, where listenership isn't as high, but there's an extremely high level of satisfaction. That's the kind of service we can provide.

One of the monologues describes a 16-year-old girl's experience of rape by an older woman as salvation. In light of the sex scandals in the Catholic Church, it is not only insensitive but offensive for a Catholic institution to perform a play that presents rape as healing for the victims.

Cardinal Keeler is well respected among his fellow bishops, and the Archdiocese of Baltimore is the first American diocese, the seat of the church, ... The fact that he has chosen to be so public and forthright will hopefully resonate with bishops in other dioceses. The fact that Giuliani is a Republican, is popular, was involved with 9/11, doesn't change the fact that he is publicly opposed to fundamental Catholic teachings.

He truly would have won the race if I hadn't been there, so I was like, 'He deserves to win it.'

Pirated broadcasts are a lousy way to listen to Howard. The best way is through a Sirius subscription.

Martha's channel will be adding programming through the fall, as we said publicly, and currently carries highly informative brief tips on a variety of topics. Howard will start in January, as we said publicly, and a preview channel will keep fans updated on the progress of building his studio and building his channels.

You can go in a subway. You can go in a health club. You can go in a bunker, and you will still be listening to 50 hours of radio.

We don't condone the stealing of Howard's show, or any of the content on our more than 125 channels. We vigorously protect our intellectual property rights and we will actively prosecute those who attempt to steal it.

We have not had bishops tell us we're treading on the bishops' authority. If they did, we would back off.

We would like the end result to be, that Notre Dame follows it's procedures and takes appropriate action in this case.

We are a pay service and thus not regulated by the FCC on issues of content.

Either I would not have finished the race at all or finished second because I owed it to him,

As an advocate of intellectual property rights we take these pirates seriously.

It's an issue we're addressing and we are educating these people as to our rights. Given the quality of Howard's show, listening to it on a pirate radio is no way to listen to it.

It's not just the column, there are also two other news articles that we are aware of.

The best way to listen to Howard Stern is not on pirated radio and not off illegal Web sites, but to subscribe to Sirius.

It is the parents who really drive true changes in education, and public education will only improve to the extent that parents are given some say in what's going on in the schools and the president speaking from the bully pulpit is not going to give them that opportunity.

I'm not shooting across the cardinal's bow. But we are seeing across the country a new set of bishops, who are younger and see more clearly the problems and dangers at Catholic universities.

I just think it will be cool to put what we've done out there (in front of an audience), rather than just making it for ourselves.

He stopped at the finish line and Westlake pushed him across the line and that's where I kind of learned it from,

Georgetown University can't be Catholic if the faculty is not on board.
