[BC] EAS alert tones in movie preview ad

[Alan Kline]

Would you rather have the music stations just keep on playin' the hits 
when a storm is coming? Considering the frailties of digital OTA TV, 
relaying the TV audio on analog radio could be a big help to someone. As 
far as not having a picture? Never bothered me. When our weather guys 
say there's a tornado heading towards me, I head for the basement. I 
don't need to see the Live Mega SupercalifragilisticexpialiDoppler to 
tell me that...
