No decision yet on suspended Green Bay radio host

Associated Press - November 7, 2009 6:15 PM ET

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) - The general manager of a Green Bay radio station says no decision has been made about the future of a conservative talk-show host who's been suspended for two weeks.

Jerry Bader has been suspended through Nov. 16. The move followed salacious comments he made speculating why Lt. Gov. Barbara Lawton suddenly dropped out of the governor's race.

Lawton had called on the station to take stronger action, saying Green Bay's image was damaged by Bader's program. But Bader fans have been vocal about expressing their support.

WTAQ general manager Duke Wright says since Bader has been out, he's been hearing from fans who want Bader back.

Lawton dropped out of the race Oct. 26, citing "very personal reasons."
