Breaking News! The John is Flushed in Milwaukee
It appears that the Deuce is done at Weigel Broadcasting’s WDJT in Milwaukee.
An internal memo went out to the staff at the station, informing them that John LaPorte is gone and it is effective immediately.
LaPorte was the one-time News Director at WITI in Milwaukee. Back in May of 2019, FTVLive was the FIRST to tell you that LaPorte was leaving WITI and headed to KIRO in Seattle.
He lasted in Seattle at KIRO about long enough to order a Venti Caramel Macchiato with Whole Milk from Starbucks.
FTVLive FIRST told you that Laporte made it barely a year at KIRO before he announced that he was quitting and headed back to Milwaukee to be the Assistant ND at WDJT.
It seemed like a strange move and now it appears Laporte is now gone from WDJT.
Here is the internal memo that was sent to the staff, it informs them that there will be a meeting later today to address the fact that John has been flushed from WDJT.
