#1 Okay, she's fat... got that part right.

What remains is whether she's a Lesbian. Green-Rainbow Party, huh? $5 will get you $10 he should be apologized to and get his job back, though it sure as hell won't happen in MassholeLand. Accuracy should count, even in PeeSeeNirvana.

#2 If she's a lesbian - seems like he has a lawsuit based on "Truth".

#3 Well, this explains why Todd Feinburg was on yesterday, doesn't it?

DePetro was pulled from the airwaves a few months ago for calling Matt Amorello, former Mass. Turnpike chairman, a fag. Looks like Feinburg's got the morning slot wrapped up now!

#4 Further - Here's the 'official' Grace Ross website (warning - do not click on this site whilst eating or drinking anything), and from this part of the website, she is referred to thusly: She is a white lesbian living in Worcester.

DePetro has referred to her as a lesbian many, many times on air in recent months, almost always by prefacing it with 'as she refers to herself on her website'.

Maybe I'm just an asshole or something, but I don't see how this is a firing offense, given his past mentions of her pelt-licking tendencies. I guess it was the combo 'fat lesbian'?

#5 No surprise - DePetro's profile has been pulled from the WRKO website (On Air tab, Weekly Lineup box on the left side).

#9 Okay, mandatory insensitivity training for the lot of us. Doesn't make no damned nevermind if'n it be truth, it's just "insensitive" to tell the truth when it might be perceived or construed to be hurtful to someone... anyone... anywhere... anytime...

"Sorry I called you a fat lesbian, bitch."

Lol, Fred.

#11 The "fat lesbian" remarks harks back to a joke by standup comic Greg Girardo, when he commented on the Inmternational Olympic Committee cancelling womens' softball.

Paraphrasing:

The reason why they cancelled womans' softball is that countries like Iran and Pakistan have a shortage of fat lesbians.

DIsclaimer: This was just a joke.

#12 I think simply mentioning her attendance at pro-hezbollah rallies, or that her party denies Israel has a right to exist would be enough. Then again, being on the far left, most of her supporters will back any evil cause.
