I didn't realize KDKA aired As the World Turns at 9:00 AM at one time before dropping it later. I wonder why they didn't air Pittsburgh 2Day in the morning at 9:00 and air ATWT in it's regular timeslot, but for some reason they rarely did. It is interesting to see General Hospital airing 9:30-10:30 AM on WTAE before Edge of Night.
