[BC] Stern's new gig

[Mike McCarthy]

You need not even cancel the whole subscription.  It's a premium service 
which is further removed from their basic package.  The Stern package is an 
extra $3/mo. for the two Stern channels.

I see no reason to brandish the whole system because a premium service is 
something you happen to find repulsive.
