While at work you receive an official text message stating that there is a zombie watch in effect in your county, but you know you didn’t sign up for any emergency alerts. Which organization likely sent out the text?
  1. The local emergency management agency
  2. The county government
  3. The wireless emergency alert system
  4. Any of the above
Explanation
Answer: C - The wireless emergency alert system

Wireless emergency alerts (WEAs) are texts sent out by government agencies like NOAA and the Federal Task Force on Zombies to cell towers and received by most cell phones in the area regardless of what alert systems individuals have signed up to receive. Local governments do sometimes provide alerts, but a cell number must be registered in order to receive them.
