Hardcore Pornography Shown On Disney Channel
A cable television company has launched an investigation after small children ended up watching hardcore porn when they tuned into their favourite cartoon on the Disney Channel.
Paul Dunleavy, a Middletown, New Jersey, subscriber to cable giant Comcast, was stunned on Tuesday morning to find his five-year-old son watching something other than Handy Manny, a cartoon show about a bilingual Latino handyman and his talking tools.
“It was two people doing their thing, it was full-on and it was disgusting,” the father-of-three told The New York Daily News.
“I couldn’t believe it. We try to do the right thing to protect our kids from this stuff, and then they broadcast it on children’s TV.”
Comcast spokesman Fred DeAndrea said last night that the programming error had occurred at around 9.30am on Tuesday. He described it as an “isolated issue in a local New Jersey facility”.
“We automatically detected the issue and it was corrected promptly. We apologise to any customer who experienced an issue yesterday morning,” said DeAndrea, who said the mistake was made by his company, not Disney.
DeAndrea would not say for how long the pornography was broadcast, how many homes it reached, how the mistake happened and whether anyone would be disciplined.
A Disney Channel spokeswoman said the company has asked Comcast for assurances that appropriate measures were taken to prevent such incidents from happening again.
The state Board of Public Utilities, which regulates the cable industry in New Jersey, has asked to meet Comcast bosses to discuss the matter.
“We value the trust that parents have in our programming and certainly take yesterday’s regrettable programme disruption extremely seriously,” said Disney Channel’s Karen Hobson. “Comcast has taken full responsibility for this situation, and we understand that they are currently working to determine the root cause of the incident.”
Dunleavy told The Daily News that he received an apology directly from Comcast, but was still disturbed by the incident.
“My son was extremely upset because he thought he’d done something wrong and we’re hoping what he saw doesn’t become an issue for him,” he said.
