I found this on the FCC website:
http://www.fcc.gov/mmb/prd/docs/manual.html#JOURNALISM

"Personal Attacks. Personal attacks occur when, during
the presentation of views on a controversial issue of public
importance, someone attacks the honesty, character,
integrity, or like personal qualities of
an identified person or group. No more than a week
after a personal attack, the station must transmit the
following three things to the person or group attacked: (1)
notification of the date, time, and
identification of the broadcast; (2) a tape, script or
accurate summary of the attack; and (3) an offer of a
reasonable opportunity to respond on the air."




This implies to me that the OTC may be able to demand an
equal time in an equal time slot for purpose of responding
to the ABC attack.

An FCC complaint possibly may be filed if ABC doesn't want
to play.
