| WRKO (680 AM) suspended talk radio loudmouth John DePetro for referring to Turnpike Chairman Matt Amorello as a "fag." In an additional, highly insightful analysis of the Big Dig situation, DePetro described Amorello as a "sissy boy."
Hey, guess what John? You're an asshole. And no one can suspend me for saying so.
According to Jason Wolfe, vice president of programming at WRKO, "This corporation has zero tolerance for racial intolerance. Mr. DePetro has 72 hours to think about it." According to the Globe, "Wolfe said he purposely chose the word 'racial' because 'people will lump everything in together.' " I'm not sure exactly what that means, but whatever. |
