Blueberries and cherries?

I've been doing some reforestation projects on our place in northeast TX. After listing some of the plants we're planting on a wildlife forum a guy made the comment saying NOT to plant cherries near blueberries or they wouldn't do so well.

Last fall we planted some premier blueberries on the place along a creek bed and I just recently planted some wild high bush blueberries. At some point I plan to plant some wild black cherry trees throughout the property, but after reading that post I'm having concerns of how far away to plant these trees from the berry bushes.

I know they grow in the same areas and habitat in the wild and i'm trying to create a place that produces for both wildlife and myself but we're planting on only a few acres and I don't want to make a move that will hinder the plants ability to produce. Has anyone else heard of such a thing with cherries and blueberries?
