We listen to KTBI almost the full 8 hours a day every week. We praise God for your ministries. What if every person in every city and town would pay for an ad OKed by ACN for your local station and maybe each week. That may attract new listeners. The answer is YES .
Federal regulations give an absolute right of access to all candidates for any federal office .
In fact, the station cannot in any way edit or control what a federal candidate says in their political ads even if the station believes the ads are inaccurate. By law stations cannot be held liable for anything said by a federal candidate in their political advertising. That is why they are not allowed to edit the advertising. If a station accepts political advertising from one party or candidate they cannot refuse to sell political time to all other candidates for the same office. Keep in mind that any individual who does not act in concert with a candidate, can buy time and express their opinion on an election.
