Hackers sent emergency broadcast zombie warning over Montana TV station VIDEO
A Montana TV station was the victim Monday of a zombie hoax.
The Great Falls, Mont., station KRTV has caught the attention of media nationwide after the emergency alert warning of a zombie attack.
The “Steve Wilkos” show was exploring the subject “Teen Cheaters Take Lie Detectors” when the familiar buzzing sounds alerted viewers of an important announcement:

It was a hoax.
The Montana Television Network reportedly said hackers broke into the Emergency Alert System of KRTV and its CW station. The broadcast went out in several Montana counties.
