Fishy? I can't say, but there are stations in the rural United States that are manned only by an engineer. Local weather (and what news they cannot avoid) are supplied by a regional studio. I have seen reports of listeners surprised to discover that their 'local' newscaster was tens or hundreds of miles away - and was equally local to several other stations in the region.

The local deejay is losing ground to the national as well as to recorded announcements.
