Really? I find the scheduling of these programs on a CBS O&O in lieu of their network morning show difficult to believe.

Westinghouse had not bought (merged with) CBS at this point, and KDKA was still under Group W ownership. According to Wikipedia (take that for what it's worth), KDKA started clearing the entire CBS schedule in the fall of 1995, as this was part of the deal Group W struck with CBS to get CBS affiliations for WBZ in Boston, KYW in Philadelphia, and WJZ in Baltimore.

Yes from September of 1993 to September of 1995, 2 KDKA TV ran Disney Afternoon in the 7-8:30 AM time slot, and the other 30 minute show ran for an hour before the CBS Saturday morning cartoons, half an hour during the 8 to Noon slot preempting one of CBS's cartoons, and an hour Sunday Mornings. KDKA TV was not under CBS Ownership at that time. Westinghouse was a different company. Initially in 1994, Westinghouse and CBS had entered into a partnership that would begin New Years Day of 1995. Under that deal 4 WBZ TV Boston and 13 WJZ Baltimore would evict NBC and ABC respectively for CBS with a no preemption agreement. CBS and Westinghouse would also buy several TV stations together. Westinghouse would continue to own its original stations and CBS would keep owning theirs. In September 1995 WCAU was sold in Philadelphia to NBC clearing KYW TV 3 to become a No Preemption CBS affiliate. Also beginning in Spetember 1995 both KDKA TV and KPIX would begin clearing the entire CBS Schedule with Disney Afternoon moving to WPTT 22 finally. A merger making CBS and Westinghouse one company was announced mid August of 1995 and took effect early 1996 making Westinghouse CBS affiliates O & O's. Still CBS did occasionally preempt a low rated show on an O & O, notably WCAU TV in the late 70s' with an hour of cartoons. CBS' most notorious preemption as an O & O was when buying affiliate KOVR 13 Sacramento from Sinclair. They continued to not run Guiding Light in that market regardless of teh fact they also owned a UPN and later CW Independent station that could have run it. In spite of having 2 stations in that market they went out of their way to not run Guiding Light. Would not even run it on overnights. Which surprises me.
