Missing News in The Burgh

A Pittsburgh viewers tells FTVLive that it appears that CBS O&O, KDKA missed their noon newscast on Wednesday.

The viewer emailed FTVLive, saying “Don’t know what’s happening, but KDKA TV in Pittsburgh totally missed the noon news.

Right after The Price is Right ended, master control flipped to a simulcast of the CBS News 24/7 stream which was showing Trump taking press questions at a Cabinet meeting.  There was no Special Report intro or anything.  Just a hard cut.

Checking the other CBS Local feeds on Pluto TV found all the other East Coast CBS O&Os were on local news.

Master Control flipped the feed back to CBS National at 12:27 for Y&R.

Their Duopoly station, “KDKA+” which airs a rebroadcast of the noon news, started airing a Friends rerun.”
