Porn played on Disney Channel in N.J.

[Louis EX 0]

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

 

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. "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."

 

Fred DeAndrea, a spokesman for Philadelphia-based Comcast, confirmed the programming error occurred around 9:30 a.m. 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 apologize to any customer who experienced an issue yesterday morning," said DeAndrea, who said the mistake was made by his company, not Disney. DeAndrea declined to provide the duration of the pornography broadcast, how many homes it reached, how the mistake happened and whether anyone will be disciplined for the X-rated error.

 

"My son was extremely upset because he thought he'd done something wrong," Dunleavy said, "and we're hoping what he saw doesn't become an issue for him."

thats sick........america is fast becoming the symbol of drugs, porn, child abuse, murder, materialism , hedonism, arrogance, tolerated in the name of 'freedom' ... and they say its a superpower. Is this the pinnacle of its acheivment? More like a 21st century Rome where all are fighting and conquering for the 'glory' of the empire, with morality being irrelevant. A will to power for power's sake. this is not a democracy. democracy is social justice!

I know kids are clued up these days but I doubt a 5 year old wouldn't even understand what they saw on the TV.

America is going down fast!

TSBO , maybe americans dont look at themselves that way but to outsiders, that is what it is. believe it or not, alot of the people who america is trying to civilize/liberate think americans are crazed barbarians and the reasons are those given above plus many more........

Kids getting early education on the subject eh

 

I do agree America has seen better times, but that's another subject of debate.

I agree that a five year old probably doesn't have any clue what it's all about, though I do know that five year olds do mimic everything they see :?

SS read the news more. or maybe some books. guys like gore vidal and noam chomsky. and stop swearing. its not just my opinion but that of many people, even most people over the world. and its not like i'm saying 'america is the root of all evil' or something. its just that in recent times these problems have worsened so much coupled with the actions of the govt abroad.

Yup America is going down the tubes, why did I have to be born here WHY? I know of a few kids who probably knew what that was at the age... yes some messed up kids, but how does that happen? did someone see Handy Manny on some hardcore porn channel? but I feel so bad for the kid in that last quote:

 

"My son was extremely upset because he thought he'd done something wrong," Dunleavy said, "and we're hoping what he saw doesn't become an issue for him."

Yea, leave instead of ****ing making things better. That's the attitude. If so, **** you.

 

Oh, and you non-Americans act as if your country has performed no crimes? Where you from vyper?

 

Judge us on a ****ing technical glitch, yippie. :roll:

[Louis EX 0]

wooo! I'm going to be watching Disney from now onwards!

[TheBlackOut 7]

Just google porn, it's much faster.

only thing is, many Europeans are even looser in their morals than americans

[vyper 0]

yeah your right sometimes maybe even most times europeans are more dissolute. but thats not my point.

 

my point is that why does the US of A take it upon themselves to be the defender of democracy and human rights when it has serious problems of its own. and its not just about a technical glitch, its just that almost every week i hear something bad from the states or related to it.

 

and it just sickens me when kids get caught up. maybe my response was a little too heated because of that.

 

the other day i read a report about sixth graders haveing sex in the classroom.

then you read about the child murderers and teenage killers. then you read about the serial killers and rapists and child abusers.

then theres so many kids growing up with mental problems or even taking psychological drugs.

then theres corporate theft, lies and deceit.

then theres the world bank president wolfowitz giving his girlfirend a job package worth more than the US secretary of state.

 

i mean, how can you even make him president of the 'world bank' and say that its a bank dedicated to development of poor countries. that bank along with IMF is just leeching poor countries by putting them in debt traps.

 

then theres the shunning of the united nations. the list goes on and on.

 

last but not least theres the war on 'terror' in the name of 'democracy' and 'freedom'.

 

maybe you people forget easily about the bad things going on. thats why gore vidal calls it the 'united states of amnesia'.

 

you may be a superpower but believe me, the days when poeple used to look at america and envy it are long gone.

 

read the news and you will see for urself. read it from past year to this day and you will see.

[TheBlackOut 7]

I'm not even reading that till you format it.

 

I can't read big text boxes.

 

And again, tell me where you live.

[mormreed 0]

I think I'm out of this thread until posts with lots of text stop coming up... the only reason I knew about the disney thing isn' cause I read the article I heard it on the radio, my attention span isn't that big...

[Wildshield 0]

Yup America is going down the tubes,

 

where are these ****ing tubes? tubes so big... someone must have seen them by now! Even from space.

[vyper 0]

my post edited for your conveniance.

[TheBlackOut 7]

Read it and pure BS. We do have all that stuff. But it's because of ya'lls blind ****nig hate you just stick out there. "OHH ANOTHER THING WRONG WITH AMERICA LOL LETS LAUGH AT THEM LOL"

 

So you never really care bout other countries wrongs. There are murders, child molesters, serial killers, frauders, gang members, EVERYWHERE.

 

It'd be hypocritical to think the U.S.A. has these problems ONLY. We have more also since... Well... I'll point it out for you. 250,000,000 PEOPLE.

 

Compared to a lot of other countries, WE HAVE A LOT MORE PEOPLE. That means a lot more WACKOs. I've read tons of **** that's going on in other's countries. AGAIN, WHAT LAND DO YOU HAIL FROM VYPER?

[vyper 0]

just look at the pop of some of the asian countries and some of them are like the size of texas and have popultaions approaching that of USA.

 

that gives a VERY high population density , which more or less evens out things.

 

check it at wikipedia if you want.

 

plus criminals are not born, they are made, so dont think that more ppl =more crime just cause there more ppl.

 

still US has highest number of inmates in world plus one of highest crime rates plus high suicide rate. theres vrtually no family system in the US. the so called defender of human rights.

 

I am from PAKISTAN. (yeah we play cnc too...alot)

 

b4 u start picking out my country's problems i must remind you............

 

there isnt any child abuse or child prostitution in Pakistan and very low level of prostitution anyway

 

we dont have a gay problem

 

our kids dont murder their parents

 

our kids arnt conditioned with psychological drugs

 

YES there are thieves and murder and rape.

 

YES there are human rights violations specially in our backward tribal areas , against our women.

 

but its not like we are saying we are a great nation and the best democracy. Unlike USA we are more concerned about our own problems and not the problems of others.

 

 

if you doubt what i'm saying check murder rate of Pakistan in Wikipedia its one of lowest in the world.

 

its risen recently thanks to your beautiful war on 'terror' in our backyard. our soldiers are dying for your stupid war.

 

its normally not like in US where mothers are rushing their kids indoors at sunset to save them from all the psycho pedophiles

 

plus we have some of the worst law enforcement in the world

we have this low murder rate despite that.

 

the only reason USA is not at the number 1 of the vice list is beacuse it has so many resources for the police....helicoptors, modern weapons,equipment etc. i have yet to see a police helicoptor in pakistan or even properly equipped police cars are few and far between.

 

 

imagine what would happen in the US if somehow the police couldn't function for a day or 2.wait, i know, it already has happened.... in hurricane katrina when all those women were raped and theives ran amok.

 

yet there is so much propaganda against pakistan and other countries in your 'free' corporate run media. your news channels run this propaganda whenever your govt wants to make your poor soldiers shed the blood of innocents. it tries to justify the wars and actions by saying 'these barbaric countries need to be 'civilzed'.

 

there are lots of good ppl in the US, im not saying you are satan or something.

 

after all, you are the guys that made the great games like C&C, doom, falcon 3, dune, infact all of the best games.

 

and most of the best movies like T2 and batman.

 

you put man on the moon.

 

and you are an open hearted and warm people.

 

you are a warm people for having a multicultural society. there was a time when i envied your country.

 

the problem starts when you call yourself the best nation in the world from which you derive some sort of moral justification for the invasion of other countries. You are far from it.

 

That is why i called america a 21st century Rome. i'm not comparing pakistan to other countries here or anything because i know theres alot of crap problems here too,mainly economic/political. just trying to make a point:

 

<<<< MY POINT >>>>

WHY DOES USA THINK IT IS THE DEFENDER OF DEMOCRACY IN THE WORLD WHEN IT, LIKE ALL OTHER COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD HAS BIG PROBLEMS OF ITS OWN?

[Louis EX 0]

Hey you're from Pakistan? Thats cool! I like the Gaddafi Stadium, it looks so awesome!
