ABC programming gone

I was watching good morning America this morning and was a few minutes in when the programming changed to WPIX news. Is this due to a licensing issue or something else?

It's been almost 2 hours!! It started at the very beginning of GMA. You would think it should be fixed by now. We deserve a service credit.

That was weird. How do they get the wrong feed going into a given channel? Really, any of you technical wizzes, educate us?

Those affected should complain to ABC about this. Think of the advertising that was lost during that time, the programming they wanted to get out.

Same thing happened to me this morning. I had to leave for work and couldn't investigate this morning. From what I can tell, the issue has been resolved. But does anyone see to know what the issue was? I can't seem to get an answer from Xfinity.
