I hope I can ease your concerns a bit.

I work as a production assistant at a news station, which means I actually run the audio board from time to time. As it turns out, anchors try to avoid using more rigid language in favor of a more casual, personable sound. They don't want to sound like news robots.

As for the second bit, Crimestoppers, to my knowledge aren't actually police. I'm pretty sure they're just volunteer citizens that help find criminals and such. I actually have no idea whether they have access to police files (probably not), but I figured it was close enough for the story. So while he's not literally working with the police, the Crimestoppers do help with that sort of thing.

If they are still particularly bothersome, I need to revise anyway, so I can change some things then.
