I disagree. The article about this linked from FARK had a stronger ending:
ABC News: Woman Sues Over Getting Candy and Not Cash

Experts said Gill's case will rely on state contract law but the radio station also could face actions by the Federal Communications Commission, which licenses radio stations.

FCC regulations say contest descriptions can't be false, misleading or deceptive and that stations must conduct contests as advertised. Stations in two other states have been fined for contests that told listeners they'd won cash prizes without specifying they were in Italian or Turkish lira, not U.S. dollars.
That seems to be the same thing as they are trying to pull here. Pay up.
