What is up with the commercials on CNN!

Bucks County PA subscriber and I'm trying to watch CNN. During the middle of the Town Hall, the commercials were cutting out the resuming of the Town Hall. They were not national commercials, but local commercials. 

Do you have a rookie running the commercials? Could you please get that squared away?

Those are local inserts and are run by a computer. There are signals and schedules as to when they are supposed to be inserted, but sometimes something gets messed up.

Regional and local commercials are inserted by Comcast's "Effecttv" division (formerly "Comcast Spotlight"): https://www.effectv.com/contact-us
