story category Comcast Broadcasts Porn During Super Bowl
Viewers in the Tuscon market get a little something extra...

Tipped by robl27 See Profile
Comcast has apparently annoyed a few folks in Tuscon, who say that the carrier aired pornography briefly during last night's Super Bowl broadcast. Instead of Larry Fitzgerald celebrating his fourth quarter touchdown, viewers in Arizona were treated briefly to video of pornographer Evan Stone's anatomy. Luckily for Comcast it was only in one market, unlike the Janet Jackson breast flap of a few years ago. It also only apparently viewable by standard definition customers. "I just figured it was another commercial until I looked up," Cora King of Marana tells the Arizona Daily Star. "Then he did his little dance with everything hanging out."

Excuse me.. are you guys trying to make a "FAG" joke?

... wow.. not sure if what you're doing is worse than what comcast did.. at least Comcast says it was a mistake while you make it on purpose.

Re: Comcast

ahh sorry if your offended but it was not a "FAG" joke.

many people I know are gay and lesbians , and i am not making fun of them , it was a joke about how a gay man has no gap to fill nor does a lesbian have a penis to fill another womans gap.

a joke nothing more nothing less , stop trying to be offended just to get attention.

Tell me that wasn't a direct dig on San Francisco stero-types.. and yea, for the record, I have gay family members. I see no distinction between this joke and one against black people or Mexicans.

But, please.. spare me on the wanting attention crap.

I sure am glad I live in a country where I'm free to discriminate against certain sexual persuasions. When they take my freedom to discriminate away, I might as well "pack it in"...(pun intended). I really think if you're taking gay humor seriously, you definitely need to add just a little more fiber to your diet, as your constipation has risen to your brain. That's my opinion, and I'm entitled to it.

Cox... trust in the name!

A pump-fake... a hand off... a lateral pass... ohhh! He really took a beating on that one! It was an all-out blitz! There was also a flag on the play... looks like the he was roughing the passer.

Gmail Support address?

Why did Comcast setup their customer complaint email address through Gmail? They couldnt get their comcastic IT dept to setup one at Comcast.net?

I'm not a customer of Comcast but I would think anyone with common sense would realize that is a really stupid move.

Pirate TV always sounded really cool, i got to hear Pirate radio once out in AZ. it was in the middle of nowhere on a highway so well the FCC would never find it before they switched off. and its not like you got any stations out there to be interfered with.

Comcast sells porn

So, Comcast admits it distributes porn; profits from porn.

Nothing wrong with being a purveyor of porn, I watch porn, except when Comcast holds itself out to be holier-than-thou and when it "manages" subscribers Internet connections who by contract, pay for unlimited bandwidth.

Limiting unlimited bandwidth connections and selling porn have nothing to do with each other, I admit except, it all travels over the last mile of pipe and premium package cable subscriptions like porn, are more profitable to Comcast than the simple ISP connection.

Nah - would have been pretty much impossible unless he continued doing it, which he didn't.

Somebody had a STL transmitter and a high-gain antenna and simply overpowered the legit STL from some location line of site to the top of the Sears Tower. Which was a good trick, seeing that the WTTW studio is not all that far away !

I would imagine STL's are digital transmitters and encrypted in some way now. (Or they're all using fiber...)

It's cheaper to use STL's than running fiber. I'd say a majority of the stations use STL's and have upgraded them for more capacity for the HD channels.
