What happened: FishSports announced it hired Richie Whitt and touted his long run covering the Dallas Cowboys and Dallas Mavericks. Ed Werder reacted by calling the move "a shocking media reunion" in a joking response.

Why it matters: The hire gives FishSports another established Dallas voice on two of the city's highest-interest beats. That matters with the NFL regular season underway and NBA coverage ramping up, when demand for team coverage spikes.

What to watch: Watch for Whitt's first bylines and how FishSports deploys him across Cowboys and Mavericks coverage.
