Howard Stern has made a living off of his shocking opinions, but his latest might be the most jaw-dropping yet. During his radio show Monday, Howard launched a long monologue defending Paula Deen's use of the 'N' word, even asking, "Why is she losing her job?"

"I have never used racial slurs in my personal life," Howard said.

"It was something in my family that we didn't do. But I know white people and I know black people … racial slurs were thrown around by every racial group. I mean, are we really gonna say that if someone takes the stand and admits to using the 'N' word and is being honest … I'm just wondering … Why is she losing her job?"
