KDKA was preempting programming Westinghouse style. Not so bad on Sunday - Yes the Sunday cartoons were missing there but airing on WPGH. Those Sunday Cartoons were preempted widely on most affiliates. They did run the religious CBS shows, two of which were Catholic shows..probably due to Pittsburgh's strong Catholic population. The neighboring CBS stations (which I did not post) in Johnstown and Wheeling were about the same on Sunday with preemptions.
4 WTAE was also preempting badly. The Sunday cartoon reruns cleared on most ABC affiliates but WTAE preempts them for syndicated cartoons which were better suited for an independent station.
11 WIIC basically running everything from NBC on Sunday - plus Pittsburgh recieved NBC affiliates from Wheeling and Johnstown which basically ran anything WIIC did not. Plus WPGH was helping out as well.
53 - WPGH - an also ran - weak for being the only commercial independent - lots of low budget shows - but CBS and ABC cartoons early morning.
