I am amazed that the news orgs don't seem to listen to the police scanner, or not as closely as ST does -- nm - ty97 Apr 19, 17:44 9
- They do, but they can't run with it as quickly. Talking to some reporter friends last night, they used to have to swear that they wouldn't report.... - Name Withheld By Request Apr 19, 17:45 3
