Whether she still gets paid is a contract issue, but they can still yank her whether or not she's an employee or independent corporation. Bottom line, Randi does NOT have apriori rights to the radio show, the owner of it does.

EDIT: Put in other terms, the New York Knicks may yank Stephan Marbury next year and kick him off the team, even though he still has a valid contract with them. The Knicks WILL have to pay Marbury, but they are not obligated to play him, or keep him on the roster.
