This is happening already.  At my former employer in
Rochester, you have "WBEE's **Roadrunner** Traffic"
every morning and afternoon drive.  Each report starts
out with something of this nature-- "WBEE Roadrunner
Traffic.  <insert sales pitch for Roadrunner internet
service here>  Now here's <name of traffic
reporter>..."
    And Rochester is not the only place where this is
happening, its happening everywhere.  Welcome to 21st
Century marketing and sales...
