  • Counterclaimer

    BUBBA THE LOVE SPONGE's attorneys have filed his counterclaim against NIELSEN AUDIO after Judge JAMES D, WHITTEMORE approved an order permitting the amended filing.

    BUBBA CLEM's previous attempt to file a counterclaim and third-party complaint had been rejected, but the judge ruled that BUBBA had shown good cause for the delayed counterclaim filing, including the slow discovery process and "voluminous" document dump -- 80,000 pages, mostly marked "Confidential" or "Confidential - Attorney's Eyes Only" -- as well as NIELSEN's demands that some information be redacted and the late maturation of the counterclaim (with BEASLEY's termination of its contract with NIELSEN in DECEMBER 2016).

    NIELSEN's contention that the counterclaim should have also included COX MEDIA GROUP as a co-defendant was also rejected by the Judge as unnecessary, and the Judge dismissed NIELSEN's concern that the counterclaim might cause significant delay in the proceedings, noting that the counterclaims may be compulsory since the claims of both NIELSEN and BUBBA arise from the same basis, the alleged ratings tampering.

    The 18 page counterclaim includes the allegations that NIELSEN and COX, owner of BUBBA's former station Talk WHPT (102.5 THE BONE)/TAMPA, conspired to interfere with BUBBA's employment by crosstown BEASLEY Rock WBRN and his advertisers; that NIELSEN de-installed PPM panelists shown to listen to BUBBA; and that COX and NIELSEN conspired in a "sting operation" using an individual named NICHOLAS TABACHUK to gather "evidence" against BUBBA, leading to WBRN's delisting and BUBBA's ultimate dismissal.

    A NIELSEN Spokesperson told ALL ACCESS, "These latest claims are entirely without merit and NIELSEN intends to vigorously defend against them."

JC, did you know that he's now relegated to AM radio in Tampa? He doesn't even get paid for it. To be on the station, he has to do constant plugs for the station, 820AM Radio? It's "Your Conversation Station!" It may sound pathetic, but still much, much better than anything on The Stern Show.

how does he make money? even on the shows I'm listening to from 5 years ago, he's basically trying to give his terrestrial show away for free just to get syndicated into more markets. does he get a piece of the advertising or something? is that how it works?

He uses the same model as Wiggy as far as getting a large piece of the advertising.
He is just another Zookeeper, like Wiggy at this point.

Bubba is just yet another victim in Howard's money grabbing bullshit. Sirius low-balled him constantly through new contract negotiations because Howard kept all the money. Bubba's biggest mistake was not staying on the channels, because he had a faithful audience who bought merchandise from him. Even though Sirius wanted to pay him less and less each year, he could have been living off the money from selling "merch" being the afternoon show on 101. Although, since his show is more entertaining, had he accepted the deals, Bubba's show would have been "Turk'ed" by now, likely.

I was listening to some old bubba uncensored from 2012 and 2013, and that shit is light years funnier than what howard's doing. even with brent on there as their personal whipping boy.

Agreed! And I'm sure I'll get death threats for saying this, but I happened to catch Opie's show recently, and it was far more entertaining than Howard has been in years! Just hearing comics and interesting people in the room talk shit and joke around was so refreshing. He had Florentine in studio as well as Pete Davidson from snl and a couple other comics - I actually laughed throughout. I can't remember the last time Howard's show was even remotely funny.. Bad move not booking comics anymore. Nick Cannon, Gwynneth Paltrow and Adam Levine just aren't funny, Howard!

Tell me about Tampa. There is a chance I may be moving there, but I've never been. My only experience with Florida is Miami-Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood and the Keys

I think it's the lightening capital of the world. Also, there's a good number of sinkholes because storms in the gulf seem to park right in that corner of the panhandle area. Weather seems like it's usually pretty nice and warm.
