Former Radio Host May Sue For Wrongful Dismissal
Talk show host Jon Gaunt, who was fired from the show TalkSport late last year for a comment about a London councillor, whom he referred to as a "Nazi" during an interview about health and safety policies, is investigating the possibility of suing the station for wrongful dismissal. Mr. Gaunt apologized for his comment, but the station fired him anyway.
