CHARLOTTE, N.C. — WSOC-TV is looking into the emergency alert that aired around 8:30 a.m. Friday morning on Channel 9 and TV64.
WSOC-TV is hearing that radio stations broadcasted the message too along with our sister station in Atlanta WSB-TV.
FEMA said the syndicated radio program inappropriately sent out the tone and other systems picked it up and passed it along.
WSOC-TV was the only Charlotte TV station to receive that tone.
