JOHN AND JEFF ON WPRO FRIDAY

No, not the talk duo Kenny wants on in RI, but DePetro & Derderian. 9AM Friday on WPRO, John scores the first post-fire interview with Jeff Derderian.

John D and Jeff D have been good friends for years, so it's no surprise that Jeff would have John as his first interviewer.

Plus the chance of anyone on Oxford wanting him in there for an interview is zilch.

While the sentiment from others at the cluster is true, Bill George, John & Jeff were all at RIC at the same time
 
John's doing all loser week with his programming. Can't believe who he's allowed on his show these past few days.
Did you hear John pussyfoot around with that law student activist who's also a blogger, a blogger who's
trashes John and talk radio on a regular basis? John had this clown on 2 days running.
Depetro has gone soft and politically correct and it's sickening to listen to.
Last people in the world I want to hear from are his loser friends the Derderians.
Boy do I miss some local talk up the dial in the AM. Depetro simply ain't doing it for me anymore.
Hearing him and Yorke talk the same subject makes Depetro look so lightweight.
Agree or disagree with his views Yorke does his homework and knows the issues inside and out.
Depetro is shallow as shallow can be. Been exposed at WPRO.
 
I agree with you Radio head. Matt Jersak is the Law students (blogger) name. He has blogged about Depetro doing drugs, assaulting women , getting pay offs, being paid by Republicians. Jersak is an enemy of Depetros and John kisses his Butt. That firing at WRKO for saying Fat Lesbian has killed Depetro.
Not the same man. I miss that.
 
Probably just self preservation. You can't fault him for that. I wonder if Derderian will take calls or if this is just a straight interview. Didn't Derderian used to work at WPRO before his TV days?
 
Derderian isn't going to say anything compelling. He's still serving his sentence and has many civil lawsuits coming his way. Will be very milktoast radio. You can predict how it will go ...Jeff is so sorry...and sorry....and sorry... (yawning)
I'm sure it'll be heartfelt but it'll be BORING radio because the guy can't and won't say anything. It's called a legal muzzle.
The way PRO is hyping this is silly.

Yes...Jeff was "Pocket Newsguy" around the building back in the late 80's/early 90's
 
Gee, do you think Depetro will ask Jeff if he's ever used the N word?
Cause thats all he's been talking about.
 
Between 9 and 10 AM I drove by the station twice on my way to an appointment. I didn't see the big media frenzy that they expected. There were two Cop Cars at the entrance to the parking lot with 2 officers outside talking to each other. I also saw a WPRI News Van parked in the lot. That was pretty much it. I didn't see any big crowds of people standing around. As a matter of fact the two cops were the only people I saw at all. The station issued a memo yesterday to expect a Firestorm of media to surround the place. By what I saw outside this morning that certianly didn't happen.
 
That is because they got all the press yesterday when they had the initial announcement for the fund.....the interview was anti climactic (especially as Jeff did a sit down with Ch 7 in Boston last night)
