Stern stuff
Calm down, Howard – Dr. Laura Schlessinger now seems headed for Paramount Television.
As The Post reported exclusively on Wednesday, radio-advice guru Schlessinger is being wooed by Paramount and Eyemark, CBS’ syndication arm that distributes ”The Howard Stern Radio Show.”
Insiders now say Schlessinger is gravitating toward Paramount – having blasted Eyemark last year when she backed out of a TV deal after learning about its connection to Stern.
Paramount officials had no comment.
