NEW YORK–December XX, 2010– SIRIUS XM Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI) announced today that it will launch “Richard Pryor Radio,” a four-day uncensored channel devoted to the legendary comedian’s entire body of work.

Widely considered one of the most groundbreaking and daring comic talents of our time, Pryor explored controversial issues of racial inequity with great insight. Pryor would have celebrated his 70th birthday this month.

“Richard Pryor Radio” will launch December 30 at 5:00 am ET and will run through 11:59 pm ET on January 2 on SIRIUS channel 108 and XM channel 139. “Richard Pryor Radio” will offer listeners the chance to hear Pryor’s work in its purest form: raw, unedited and uncensored.
