Never fear America: The FBI is making sure that there will never again be an incident of Super Bowl TV porn. However, all anthrax letters will be delivered as usual.
Don’t tell me that you’ve already forgotten how about 30 seconds of a porn movie made its way onto the Super Bowl broadcast shown to about 80,000 Comcast cable subscribers in the Tucson area. Comcast is saying that it was “a malicious act” perpetrated by an outside party (those terrorist bastards!), and have vowed to catch the culprits.
But so far, the hacker(s) have eluded the net. So in comes the FBI’s renowned TV porn squad.

Ahaaaa,
So what happened was this: Comcast mistakenly broadcasted a pornography film from a “pay-per-view” channel to fill a slot that they didn’t have paid for during that “who the heck saw that coming” touchdown. And they had to answer for it.
So they said they contacted the FBI to, well, to investigate it. How much do you want to bet that’s a lie? Comcast *should have* contacted the FCC because, that’s the law.

Anyone want to let ‘em know, if they didn’t already? Here’s the extreme irony: I couldn’t cuss over the radios in Iraq, but Comcast can broadcast pornography over a basic cable channel to an entire region in Arizona, inside the United States, and not have to answer to the FCC? WTF?!!?
