Artie Lange on the Howard Stern Show after an argument with his personal assistant on the air, and now the question remains whether he will ever return.
The argument between Lange, who joined the show permanently in 2001, and his assistant of 2 years, Teddy, quickly escalated from a simple squabble over travel accommodations.
As the spat continued, Lange became enraged and physically
lashed out at Teddy, but the physical confrontation was apparently
diffused by other members in the studio.
When Lange returned, he said Teddy would be “dead” had he reached him and that he’d be in jail.
Stern said he cannot
condone Lange’s actions, but Artie (who’s been prone to such outbursts) said he can’t guarantee he won’t act out in the future.
Artie then offered his resignation, and Stern accepted but told Lange to leave and cool off.
Teddy returned to the studio several minutes later and said there
was overreacting from everyone. Howard Stern and producer Gary Dell’Abate said they “did not know what to make of it all.”
