Fedko was voted "Pittsburgh's favorite sportscaster" by Pittsburgh Magazine. He is especially popular during high school football season. In 1995, he was the second-most recognizable personality in Pittsburgh, two percentage points behind KDKA-TV's Patti Burns. Friday night football is still known as John Fedko's Skylights, which is a staple product of WPXI-TV.

Fedko was born in Lawton, Oklahoma to John and Catherine Fedko. He has three sisters. The family moved to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania in 1972, where he attended Trinity High School in Camp Hill. In 1977, Fedko's family moved to Orange County, California, and Fedko entered the University of California, Irvine, but later transferred to University of Southern California.

Fedko began creating home skits at the age of nine. In his early twenties, Fedko sought to become a celebrity by moving into television. Fedko became a TV weatherman and sportscaster in the Midland–Odessa metropolitan area. When the sports director died, Fedko was promoted to sports director at the age of 23. Fedko next moved to Amarillo, Texas, then Milwaukee, then finally to Pittsburgh.
