No President has ever used the current [EAS] system or its technical predecessors in the last 50 years, despite the Soviet missile crisis, a presidential assassination or attempted assassination, the Oklahoma City bombing, major earthquakes and three recent high-alert terrorist warnings including 911.
There are around 35 50K radio stations that reach like 95% of the American public. I don’t understand why the NOAA Weather radio stations don’t participate, that’s just weird.
Your point is well taken... besides a nuclear attack or Marshall Law... what else is there? An asteroid? The government would never let us know if we were going to be hit by an asteroid.

Actually the one time this system was very nearly activated was 9/11. However, the head of FEMA decided that by the time it was clear that it was a matter of national security, that the networks/media were doing as good of a job or better of getting the word out.
