Projection is a hell of a drug. Maybe some self reflection is in order.
While I admit that I shared the same initial curiosity and surprise at the identical coverage, there is a simple explanation that does not involve conspiracy theories (aka spoiler alert). These are "feed stories" and they're happening more frequently because newsrooms are smaller so more small stations grab stories off the feed for their National pieces. Problem is they're selecting a story on media bias.

Not disagreeing with you nsplayr. I don't doubt that some (maybe most?) are "forced" to read the script. I'm just pointing out that these stories go out on any conglomerate wire and--in at least some cases--the news rooms are so small that they indeed just read what comes across the wire verbatim.
