Following up on my own comment. Alabama is one (of few) state which
collects state-wide data about EAS use and on-air broadcast. While
Alabama is one of the best data collectors, its a self-selected
broadcaster population. Alabama didn't cover non-broadcast EAS sources
(cable, satellite).
States like Pennsylvania and Florida collect(ed?) data about EAS
origination, but not which EAS messages actually made it on the air
(heard by the public).
Ad-hoc postings on social media (X/Twitter, Facebook, etc), most of the
public gets first alerts and warnings via WEA. The public turns on
radio & TV for follow-up information.
