Cross: Don’t Want To Read It On HBO

From the Coeur d'Alene Press story re: the successful resolution to audit the Kootenai County GOP Central Committee books:

Committeeman John Cross spoke in favor of the resolution, saying the chair always appoints committee members, and that the resolution was fair to everyone on the central committee. Cross said the nondisclosure language was added to prevent finance committee members from leaking information to the public before the committee hears the results. "For instance, let's say the committee is formed and the CPAs are hard at work and the work gets done in a week, but we don't have a meeting for three weeks after that," Cross said. "I think that is what the nondisclosure is all about. We don't want to read about it on Huckleberries (Online) before it is reported back to the full committee."

Question: Reading between the lines here, can I assume that Huckleberries Online attracts some blurkers from the local Hard Right?
