The self-proclaimed King of All Media was dealt a public blow today as a Manhattan Supreme Court justice shot down his lawsuit against SiriusXM.
Last year, Stern and his agent, Don Buchwald, filed a lawsuit against his employer, mere months after renewing his radio show contract for another five years.
