wrote on Twitter: “Thinking about filing a lawsuit with [sic] #CHCH for
making me question my sexuality.”
====================
A newscast on a local television station in Hamilton, Ontario was
interrupted yesterday by three minutes of hardcore gay pornography, which
has drawn equal amounts of humour and outrage across social networks.
The incident occurred around 9.30 in the morning, local time, on the local
CHCH television station, causing not inconsiderable embarrassment for the
news director, according to the original report by The Hollywood Reporter.
The station was quick to disown responsibility, and said that it was a
repair job gone awry, thanks to the work undertaken by a local cable company
. Although CHCH attempted to recast their programme, they could not do so
for roughly three minutes. Mike Katrycz, vice-precident of CHCH News, said:
“In the splicing together, unfortunately, some inappropriate content went [
on] air.”
He added: We discovered through quick investigation that it was not (our
station), it was one of the cable companies that had patched it… There was
nothing wrong with the transmission from (us)..it was a problem at one of
the cable companies that was beyond our control.”
He was very apologetic about the incident, and admitted that the hardcore
porn also reached people in the capital, Ottawa, through a repeat
transmitter belonging to CHCH. Several apologies both on-air, and online,
followed.
Mr Katrycz said in a statement: “This was in no way CHCH’s doing. We didn
’t provide or supply that content, it suddenly appeared on cable and
satellite distribution, not on our actual air.”
