An emergency FEMA alert test will sound Oct. 4 on all U.S. TVs, radios and cellphones::On Wednesday, Oct. 4, FEMA and the FCC will launch a nationwide test of the emergency alert system.
I’m confused why this is getting so much press.
Aren’t there normal periodic routine tests of these systems anyway?
Why the extra effort to notify people this time?
