@cbsnews: Kevin McGowan, Director of the Los Angeles County Office of Emergency Management, apologizes for erroneous messages that have been sent through the wireless emergency alert system across LA County, saying the errors were "not activated or initiated by a person." McGowan advises against disabling the message on phones as they investigate the issue. "Not receiving an alert can be a consequence of life and death." #losangeles #news #wildfires #emergencyalert #california #pasadena #altadena #pacificpalisades
He sounds like he is going to cry. A genuine apology. This was not even human error.

Wow, seems like Cali has lost ALL control. It’s actually pathetic. We the people know the root cause. L.A. is horrific anymore. A human junkyard

I'd rather the false alarm than none, it was reported as a mistake in multiple ways pretty quickly 😔
