The emergency broadcast system of a television station in Montana is
hacked to broadcast the announcement that the undead are coming.

The dead are so hot right now. Teen romance "Warm Bodies" was No. 1 in
the box office a week ago, and "The Walking Dead" just broke a basic
cable record for the most watched show at 12.3 million viewers. 

Amid this undead fervor, the fertile, tasty brains of Montana's
residents have fallen foul of a hoax alerting them that the dead have
risen.

The emergency broadcast system was "hacked" and viewers of the "Steve
Wilkos Show" got more than just teen cheaters when alerted that "dead
bodies are rising from their graves." 
KRTV quickly noticed the broadcast and pulled it down, issuing this
apology today: 

"Someone apparently hacked into the Emergency Alert System and announced
on KRTV and the CW that 'dead bodies are rising from their graves' in
several Montana counties. This message did not originate from KRTV, and
there is no emergency. Our engineers are investigating to determine what
happened and if it affected other media outlets." 

If you watch the video you'll hear what sounds like Bane from "The Dark
Knight Rises" calmly telling people not to approach the "dead bodies."
