Pittsburgh stations went wall to wall this weekend with the awful news that 11 people were killed when an idiot with an AR-15 opened fire in a Pittsburgh synagogue.
If you lived outside of the Pittsburgh area or were trying to stream the breaking news on CBS's KDKA, you had to first sit through an ad before you could get the latest on what was happening.
I know that many stations put ad sales before news, but in extreme cases like this one, it is best that you give up a few ad dollars and provide a public service.
