ABSTRACT:
A method (200) and an apparatus (106) for a wireless communication device for receiving an emergency broadcast message are provided. The wireless communication device (106) monitors (204) incoming broadcast messages, and determines (206) whether the incoming broadcast messages include the emergency broadcast message. If the emergency broadcast message is included, then the wireless communication device (106) overrides (208) a settable broadcast service reception preference, and receives (210) the emergency broadcast message. The wireless communication device (106) then transmits (212) an acknowledgment of receiving the emergency broadcast message, and communicates (214) the reception of the emergency broadcast message.
