Hackers broadcast zombie apocalypse alert on US TV

LOS ANGELES: Hackers caused a bizarre alert in the US state of Montana by broadcasting a warning about zombies attacking the living, local television channels said Tuesday.
The apocalyptic warning interrupted programming via the Emergency Alert System, normally used for real catastrophes such as extreme weather, or even a direct message from the US president in the case of a national crisis.
The message was preceded by a buzzing noise typical of such broadcasts, before a voice intoned: “Civilian authorities in your area have reported that the bodies of the dead are rising from their graves, and attacking the living.
