A New Hampshire radio station has terminated a talk show after its host called that state’s Democratic Party chairman a derogatory name.

Nassau Broadcasting, the owner of WEMJ 1490am in Laconia, says it terminated its contract with air conservative radio host Doug Lambert’s “Meet the New Press” show after Lambert called New Hampshire’s Democratic Party chairman Raymond Buckley, who is gay, “a faggot,” and further insulting him by mimicking the way gay men are purported to walk during a live web cam streaming to the Internet last weekend.

“Although the comments by Mr. Lambert were not aired on our station, we find the comments by him to be completely out of line and unacceptable, and we will not allow Mr. Lambert the opportunity to continue to air his show on our radio station,” said Rob Fulmer, regional manager for Nassau.

In addition, Ed Engler, the editor of the Laconia Daily Sun, announced his newspaper would no longer carry Lambert’s weekly column.
