Myself, I would remove the DJ until after the election. IMHO only, you 
have a ticking time bomb sitting in that chair where one slip of the lip 
can send your station into 399 hell (endorsing a candidate for 
office).    You have a potential liability here. Any of the attorneys 
want to chime in?

The potential candidate thinks that he is due equal time based on the Dj having a musical program where he doesn’t discuss politics.  Any ideas on how to proceed?
