Why Him? Sports fans want their news and analysis immediately. Lapidus gets that, so he’s added respected sports journalists Mark Zuckerman and Rich Tandler to CSNWashington.com. “Our desire is to acquire the best talent and cutting-edge technology, then integrate those components with our existing television news-gathering resources to deliver a one-stop source for regional sports news,” he says. “The investment is vital because we must deliver a high-quality product for fans through online and mobile outlets – just as we do on TV.”
