The former New York governor was previously accused by 11 different women of nonconsensual kissing, touching and sexual remarks.
Maher recently criticized Stern for praising his own wife on his own show â and said Stern should think about his ex-wife before doing so.
Stern said Maher âought to shut his mouthâ after the political commentator criticized him for expressing his love for his wife, Beth Stern.
Maher's announcement comes a day after Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Hudson and "The Talk" announced plans to postpone returning to the air.
Maherâs decision follows an instance where he called WGA strike demands âkooky.â It also comes after Drew Barrymore announced her show would air despite the strike, too.
The "Real Time" host described the actor's decision to go off-script with his controversial comments as "ballsy."
