It's worth noting that channel 50 does multiple feeds.  If you're
getting it by broadcast or by cable around the Detroit/Ann Arbor area,
you're getting the actual broadcast.  But WKBD sells their signal all
over the US and Canada -- they're not quite a superstation, but they do
have lots of customers outside of the actual broadcast area.  Those
customers get their feed from satellite, which is sometimes a different
feed from the broadcast.  This is particularly true if the item being
fed is something of regional relevance (specialty shows), a sports
event which may "trespass" on another teams broadcast zone, etc.
