>>LEXINGTON, Ky. - A woman who won a radio contest that promised the winner
>>"100 grand" sued after the station gave her a candy bar - a Nestle's 100
>>Grand - instead of $ 100,000.
>>
>>Norreasha Gill filed a complaint Wednesday in Fayette District Court
>>against Atlanta-based Cumulus Media, which owns WLTO-FM in Lexington. Gill,
>>28, says the station and its parent breached a contract to pay $ 100,000 to
>>the contest winner.
>>
>>Night host DJ Slick sponsored the station's contest to "win 100 grand,"
>>Gill said in the lawsuit. Gill won by listening to the radio show for
>>several hours and being the 10th caller at a specified time.
>>
>>She went to the radio station the next morning to pick up her prize, but
>>was asked to return later. When she got home, she found that the station
>>manager had left a message explaining she had won a 100 Grand candy bar,
>>not money.
>>
>>Later, he offered her $ 5,000, Gill said. "I said I wanted $ 95,000 more,"
>>she said. "Nobody would watch and listen for two hours for a candy bar."
>>
>>DJ Slick did not return an e-mail from the Lexington Herald-Leader, but he
>>said on his Web site that he had left his job. WLTO and Cumulus declined to
>>comment.
>>
>>Experts said the radio station could face action by the Federal
>>Communications Commission.
>>
>>FCC regulations say contest descriptions can't be false or deceptive and
>>that stations must conduct contests as advertised.
