I think they'll have someone (at each station) kind of lurk on message boards to get a feel for the pulse, and to see if there's any stories they may have missed on. I've heard both stations discuss stuff as "new news" that was talked about on the CP a day or two before. I think the actual air talent stay off message boards because, in their minds, they're "professional sports journalists" and need to give the aura of being elevated above the average message board junkie. Even though many here on the CP are often better informed that the local sports hosts (Twibell was terrible, never prepared, Whitlock the same) you don't become part of the audience if you're the entertainer.
Does that make sense?
