This is an Actual Emergency Alert broadcast on KRTV in Bozeman, Montana


In reality, what happened is someone "hacked" the station's EAS (while working in Radio, I've became familiar with EAS and It's not a difficult system. Really, you can manually trigger it with a phone call and input the message from the call. So "hacked" is a stretch. More like poor passcode keeping).

So, does anyone else find this hilarious? Furthermore, do you find it even more hilarious because it occurred during the Steve Wilkos show, whose audience (not to offend or anything) is probably more likely to believe the report.

Any other thoughts?
