Viewers Not Happy At Interruption On Game Night


Red blooded American viewers got a surprise when their TV coverage of a pornographic film was interrupted by American football's Super Bowl.

Arizona based XKYVA-TV said it was "dismayed and disappointed" after some cable viewers had their film “The Handy-man Can” disrupted towards the end of the film.
The company said the material was only seen by viewers of one cable network.

"XKYVA will investigate what happened and make sure our viewers get answers," company representative Ken Stott said. "When the feed of the boy girl film was transmitted from XKYVA to local cable providers and through over-the-air antennas, there was no Super Bowl material," he added.

Camecast, the cable company whose viewers saw the material, said it was investigating. Local media outlets reported that they received calls from furious viewers. The clip showed a man in a tight costume engaged in a graphic act between another man.

"I just figured it was another commercial until I looked up," viewer Ben Dover told his local newspaper The Star. "Then he did his little celebratory dance with everything hanging out it just wasn’t the touch down I was expecting."
