WIP/Philly Adds Decamara and Ritchie to Middays


CBS Radio's Sports WIP-FM/Philadelphia announces the team of Joe DeCamara and Jon Ritchie as the station's new midday show. DeCamara and Ritchie will air the program weekdays from 10am-2pm beginning October 24. DeCamara is a Sports/Talk host with 16 years of on-air experience in the market. Ritchie is a veteran of seven NFL seasons, split between the Oakland Raiders (1998-02) and the Philadelphia Eagles (2003-04). He started for 2 seasons in Philadelphia with the Eagles.

"We are thrilled to add this new show featuring Joe and Jon," said Senior VP/Market Manager David Yadgaroff. "As a player, Jon Ritchie embodied the hard-working nature of our fine city. As a host, he will connect with the fans and share their passion for our local teams. Joe has proven himself to be a strong voice for the Philadelphia fans. We are excited to have them."

DeCamara added, "I'm extremely excited to join WIP and CBS Radio. With Jon's background as an Eagles' player and talk show host paired with my on-air experience and passion for the Philadelphia sports teams from as far back as I can remember, we'll provide an entertaining show while connecting with the audience. I look forward to Monday morning when Jon and I can get started."

Ritchie commented, "WIP defines sports radio to me, and Philadelphia defines passion. I'm foaming at the mouth because this is a gigantic opportunity to drop truth-bombs on a savvy fan base who appreciates brutal honesty."
