Over the years Howard Stern's free-flowing vulgarity has cost radio broadcasting networks over a million dollars in fines from the Federal Communications Commission. Here are a few of Stern's priciest slip ups:
BLUMPKIN. July 26, 2001. "A blumpkin. . . . I can explain it cleanly. . . . A blumpkin is receiving oral sex while you're sitting on a toilet bowl if you are a man. You're sitting on a toilet bowl, and uh, while you're evacuating you receive your oral." $27,500
AUNT JEMIMA. October 31, 1991. "The closest I came to making love to a black woman was I, uh, masturbated to a picture of Aunt Jemima on a pancake box. I did it right on her kerchief." $600,000

Threat of forfeiture COLUMBINE SHOOTINGS. April 21, 1999. Stern criticizes the two teenagers responsible for the massacre: "There were some really good-looking girls running out with their hands over their heads. Did those kids try to have sex with any of the good-looking girls? They didn't even do that? At least if you're going to kill yourself and kill all the kids, why wouldn't you have some sex? If I was going to kill some people, I'd take them out with sex." Threat of forfeiture

CUNNILINGUS. April 9, 2003. Stern reads aloud a letter from a fan disturbed about a previous show: "Jesus H. Christ, just the thought of that [flatulence] obese slob Artie on the bed all sweaty, hairy, and naked giving his girlfriend [flatulence] a, what do you call that, using his mouth in a really dirty place makes we want to friggin' shoot myself. Imagining the scene with Bobbabooey was no better. [flatulence]" $495,000 total
JENNA JAMESON'S VAGINA. June 3, 1996. Howard Stern invites to his show the father of Jenna Jameson, a famous adult film star, and challenges him to pick out Jenna's vagina from a series of spreads. Father: "I'll say this one." Stern: "Which one? That's her . . . That's Jenna. That's her vagina." Father: "I picked it out. [Trumpet sounds]" Threat of forfeiture
"THE MOST HORRENDOUS THING EVER." January 19, 1994. A male caller explains how a woman engaging him in oral intercourse began to vomit mid-act. Stern: "So you look, you look down and there was vomit all over you." Caller: "The big chunks." $200,000
