> | 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."
> |
> | "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.
> |
> | A Disney Channel spokeswoman said the company has asked Comcast for
> | assurances that appropriate measures were taken to prevent such
> | offensive incidents from happening again.
> |
> | "We value the trust that parents have in our programming and certainly
> | take yesterday's regrettable program disruption extremely seriously,"
> | said Disney Channel spokeswoman 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 he 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."
