Station airs week old newscast

In Baton Rouge, LA recently, a local station did a misdeed where it aired a local newscast that nobody at the station noticed.

 

WVLA, a NBC affiliate, on Sunday night, November 16th, aired a local newscast after the Sunday night football game between the Cowboys and Redskins. However, the newscast was a week old, with an old Saints football score.

 

In fact, their weekend newscasts are not produced out of Baton Rouge, but from Tyler, TX at their sister station.

 

At the end of that story, it talks about a story that WAFB (CBS) did, an investigation, called "The Cheating Season" (about adultery during hunting season) that was completely stolen from WMC in Memphis, their sister station (video and all, with voiceover).
