Effective Monday, according to the Post-Gazette.

   WPXI gets WWTBAM at 1 p.m. weekdays. Tyra Banks Show switches to WPGH, also at 1 p.m.

Interesting....In checking their website, it looks like they've paired it with "Family Feud" following at 1:30. Kind of a throwback to the '70s when ABC Feud aired at 1:30pm.

I don't think this is the first time WPXI has aired game shows from 1-2...

Looks like Sinclair will have to get off their duffs and find filler program for Millionaire's slot on WPMY.

Correct!  Two years ago, they had an hour of Feud at 12:30 then an hour of Pyramid.  I loved it!

Not quite.....they did indeed have an hour of Feud at 12:30 but after that they ran just a half-hour of Pyramid (which would move to WNPA [now WPCW] the following season).
