It was revealed today that
Howard Stern sidekick Artie Lange
attempted suicide over the weekend.
Today, Stern
struggled with speaking about it on the air. Very honest and emotional stuff.
I was a big fan and supporter of Lange's when he first started on the show as a regular (in 2001..?). His personal problems have been more of a distraction to the show lately (including a few ill-advised public appearances). I can only hope he's able to pick up the pieces and get back to doing what he does best.
