Post Dana Plato

Do you think Howard Stern pushed Dana to the end of her life? I find it's mostly his fault. He's so criticle of anyone on his show. It's so sad Dana had to live her last days the way did.

RIP Dana Plato

Yes, I think her doing that show did push her off the edge. The things people were saying when they called were so harsh. Poor Dana

RIP Dana Plato

I'm sorry, but I just couldn't even imagine being Dana when she was on Stern's Show. How would I feel if total strangers were calling to insult me? If I was Dana, I probably would've started crying. Since I wasn't there, but if I as a person were there I probably would've walked off the show and told the viewers to **** off. Dana was very brave to stay there during that show.

TJ posted that after the show Dana even called to thank Stern, which I think was a good thing. The viewers that called in probably heard her telling Stern thank you, and I'm sure that was Dana's slap to the viewers that you didn't break my spirits.

I agree. I would be depressed if complete strangers were calling me liesbean, cursing at me and everything like that. She didn't deserved to live her last days the way she did. All those callers and Howard Stern should be ashamed of themself.

I agree. I pretty much stopped listening to his show after that one. I think what makes me even more upset is that Howard doesn't seem to have any remorse. Personally I think everyone in the world should boycott his show and get his butt thrown off the air, unfortunately I don't think that will ever happen.

I agree. He has never to my knowledge brought it up again. Also
I don't want to make any assumptions without knowing all the facts & I may be the only one who feels this way, I wondered
though if all the people who called in the show worked for Howard. Because doesn't it seem weird that all the calls
for Dana were negative????Also doesn't it seem weird that Howard said" Why is everyone being mean to Dana?"? Like it was a rehersed line. Only after Dana started getting upset did Howard play a call from a viewer that was kind.
Does this seem fishy to you all? Also if he had all nice viewers With nice things to say to Dana wouldn't there be less ratings then having a former child actress break down & cry. For some reason if a former chid actress is doing good we don't seem to hear to much about it. If a former child actress is doing bad we hear plenty about it.
