Candidate Ross back on the air; foes miffed

By Warren Cornwall

Talk-show host Dave Ross, fresh on the congressional-campaign trail, yesterday returned to the airwaves and defended his decision to remain on his midmorning radio talk show at KIRO (710 AM).

Ross' decision to keep his job has drawn criticism from opponents who charge that his campaign will benefit from hours of radio exposure that other candidates can't afford.

Ross said he will run his talk show as he always has, unless other candidates take aim at him.

"I don't plan to spend any time talking about this campaign unless they bait me. If they bait me I will defend myself," Ross said on his three-hour morning show, roughly 12 hours after announcing he would run as a Democrat in the suburban 8th District.

Several opponents questioned whether Ross' arrangement is legal or fair.
