KVUE & KXAN Are Awesome Badasses!

Austin stations carrying live feed from Houston stations. God bless 'em.

KVUE & KXAN Are Awesome Badasses!

UPDATE: By this afternoon, the local commercial stations were back to their regularly scheduled programming. Local Ike relief info can be found on the City of Austin's municipal TV cable Channel 6.

Also KLBJ-AM and Spanish language 107.7 FM will have updates.

******************************

Huge hugs and media colleague backslaps to KVUE-TV and KXAN-TV: KVUE is carrying the live feed from Houston's KHOU-TV, and KXAN is carrying KPRC-TV from Houston. The Houston stations are running straight through with coverage – very little in the way of commercial interruption.

Thank you, KXAN. Thank you, KVUE.
