Announce at the beginning exactly WHY the delay is being used, and make the chyron nice and big.
Give him twenty-five minutes to bloviate.
Then cut him off.
Use the next half hour to allow one or two sane people to rebut, and/or deconstruct the most egregious lies.
One hour of broadcast time.
Perfectly do-able.
They won't, though.
futilely,
Bright

I like your suggestion of simply normalizing the delay-and-fact-check-by-chyron as a standard practice.
appreciatively,
