Porn Accidentally Played on Disney Channel

May 4, 2007

DIS News has a story from Associated Press: Porn Played on Disney Channel.

Cable operator Comcast is investigating how hardcore pornography was broadcast during a popular cartoon program on the Disney Channel in New Jersey.

Customer Paul Dunleavy would also like to know. He was stunned Tuesday morning to find his 5-year-old son watching something other than “Handy Manny,” a cartoon about a bilingual Latino handyman and his talking tools.

Talking tools, indeed.

    btw, I’ve not commented before but I thought you’d appreciate the compliment: this has quickly become one of my favorite blogs. I’d like to think that this is the blog I would come up with. Came for the info, stayed for the humor. =) Also, the GKTW support is greatly appreciated!

    I remember reading somewhere that many of the major studios are involved with the porn business, secretly of course for obvious reasons. Whether it be production or distribution, there is a great deal of money to make. I wouldn’t put it past Disney to be one of those studios streaming porn through the airwaves.

    I’d be surprised if Disney actually had anything to do with this . . . everything I’ve read about the story suggested operator error, intentional or not.

    I totally get how this can happen. I work at the Headend for our local cable company. We are dependant upon computerized program mapping from our New York office.

    Over the past couple years we have been making the transition from analog to digital. One morning following a channel conversion we discovered that late night adult content from Showtime had been routed to the Discovery channel. We noticed it about 5 am and it was over an hour before our NY office corrected it.

    Discovery Channel, eh? You shouldn’t leave straight lines lying around like that.

    As I recall, it had no redeeming “educational” value. It was quite a scramble getting it fixed.
