Comcast is investigating what it calls an "isolated, malicious act" in which 30 seconds of pornographic content was aired during its telecast of the Super Bowl on Sunday.

Corporate affairs manager Kelle Maslyn said the cable company has "some leads" and will "aggressively pursue" them "until we come to a resolution."

The incident affected only customers not watching the high definition broadcast. It's not known how many customers saw the porn clip, she said.

Comcast is offering $10 credits to any customer in Tucson "who was impacted," she said in a statement issued Monday afternoon. To get the credit, customers should call 888-315-8219.

What? Those single dudes must have been very lucky. But for the children, oh the children!

It's too late... we call this one pretty beeeg mistake!

What shocks me even more is that it ran for AN ENTIRE 30 SECONDS!!! That's very long if you happen to be the viewer or the person controlling the broadcast. What were they doing, sleeping? I think the fault lies directly with whoever controlled the broadcasting... time for a competency check!

EDIT: Ok, I just realised this: IS THAT THE SUPERBOWL???? OHH NOO!!!
How many people were watching? (that don't have HD that is)

Television is actually delayed by several seconds when something is live, for people in dark little rooms watching a lot of different screens wearing headphones to bleep naughty words and the like out.

How the holy hell did this one slip by that? o_O

It was only in Tucson and not HD. Prolly a few hundred people. (I don't know how big (populous) Tuscon is)

Still, that's a couple of hundred.

Sure, a couple of hundred's not a huge amount of people, but it's enough to cause some major headaches for Comcast!

If I'm right, it's against the Broadcasting rights to show images of explicit sexual content, so they're in for some trouble, accidental or not.

This was no accident, haha. This was obviously a prank, which pulled through pretty nicely. But still, its a shame for all of the people who don't want to see that.

Hah, after the clip ends:
"Went to the perfect guy in the perfect situation.."

Personally I would have picked a better clip. I mean, if you're going to do this you should go all the way. Like, a 9-dude pileup or something.

80,000 people just got paid for watching porn.

(Though it may not exactly have been the porn they wanted.)
