    Kids tuned to 'Handy Manny' get porn
    Wed May 2, 4:52 PM ET

    Children here got more than they bargained for when they tuned in to "Handy Manny" on the Disney Channel this week — hard-core pornography.

    Cable giant Comcast is investigating how the porn was broadcast during the popular cartoon, which is about a bilingual handyman, Manny Garcia, and his talking tools.

    Customer Paul Dunleavy was stunned Tuesday morning to find his 5-year-old son watching the broadcast.

    "It was two people doing their thing; it was full-on and it was disgusting," the father of three told The New York Daily News.

    Comcast spokesman Fred DeAndrea confirmed that the programming error occurred around 9:30 a.m. Tuesday. He declined to provide the duration of the porn broadcast but described it as an "isolated issue in a local New Jersey facility."

    A Disney Channel spokeswoman said the company has asked Comcast for assurances that appropriate measures were taken to prevent such situations in the future.

    "Talking tools?" Plural?

    He's not happy with just his one tool?

    Why can't these "accidents" ever happen here? I'll be damned if I'm paying for porn.

    It was meant to be. Anyway I find it odd that these things always seem to happen during KIDS programming. Never during say... hockey or something like that. Makes me wonder if some twisted individual isn't responsible.
