Minot is home to Minot AFB. One of the most important military installation in the entire country, if not world. Minot is not a "typical" small market. Many military personnel work overnight, especially at a base like Minot AFB. Many military graveyard workers listen to the radio to help them stay awake.
And what do people on a base have to do with a train wreck near the center of town? We are talking about alerting the civilian population, not a military installation. I will bet the military has a vastly better alert system than the EAS.
In any case, there was no reason to blame Clear Channel as they did everything required of them and there was nothing more they could have done in this case.
