| Comcast Airs PORN During Disney Broadcast quote:
New Jersey Kids See Porn Instead of Cartoons on Disney Channel
Thursday, May 03, 2007
MIDDLETOWN, N.J. - Children here got more than they bargained for when they tuned into "Handy Manny" on the Disney Channel this week. Now cable giant Comcast is investigating how hardcore pornography was broadcast during a popular cartoon program.
Customer Paul Dunleavy would also like to know. He was stunned Tuesday morning to find his 5-year-old son watching something other than a cartoon about a bilingual Latino handyman, Manny Garcia, and his talking tools.
"It was two people doing their thing, it was full-on and it was disgusting," the Middletown father of three told The New York Daily News for Wednesday newspapers.
"I couldn't believe it," he said. "We try to do the right thing to protect our kids from this stuff, and then they broadcast it on children's TV."
Dunleavy's phone number was unlisted when The Associated Press tried to contact him Wednesday.
Comcast spokesman Fred DeAndrea confirmed the programming error occurred around 9:30 a.m. Tuesday. He described it as an "isolated issue in a local New Jersey facility."
