Howard Stern is angry HBO edited his Rock & Roll Hall of Fame speech: "They completely gutted me"

Billboard

The shock jock, whose unedited speech was uploaded by a fan to YouTube, expressed frustration this morning that HBO edited out portions of his Bon Jovi induction speech -- such as him joking about the number of women Richie Sambora "banged." "You can't fly me to f*cking Cleveland and ask me to make a speech and then edit the sh*t out of me," Stern said of the HBO edits. "I wasn't there talking about my career. I spent a lot of time on that and they spent three minutes deciding what should be in and out...They completely...gutted me. Like a rotting fish, which I am. That's how I feel inside."
