Hard-core porn interrupts Brokaw broadcast
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11497287/

MESA, Ariz. - A cable news program was temporarily replaced with hard-core pornography, shocking viewers who had been watching a health show featuring former NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw.

The incident Monday night on KPPX-TV was “an act of human sabotage” at the Phoenix-area station, said ION Television, which operates the station.

“We have launched a rigorous investigation, and any implicated employees will face strict disciplinary action and termination,” ION Media Networks spokeswoman Leslie Monreal said in a statement.

1. Ya, know,
if you're gonna disrupt a program, why not interrupt with "V" or some political message? Yeah, yeah, not nearly as fun or titillating.

:-) I remember reading that the average porn rental in hotel rooms lasts around twelve minutes.

Sometimes you've just got to get the job done and out of the way.
