Naked news: CHCH accidentally airs pornography due to switching error

TORONTO - Some TV viewers who tuned in for CHCH's morning news broadcast got more than they bargained for today.

The Hamilton-based broadcaster has issued an apology after its ``News Now'' show was overrun for a few minutes by a graphic sex scene.

But the station, which is owned by Toronto-based media group Channel Zero, stressed that the error was not its own.

The station blamed the mixup on a switching error at one of the cable companies that picks up its signal.

Meanwhile, some viewers took to Twitter to complain about the mistake.

While some viewers joked about the error, others weren't pleased.

Could not edit the above, should have said `this link' because I don't know what channel it actually was, but nakednews.com has been around for years.

Appreciate the concept of nudists who are not embarrassed or ashamed of their tush !

That was out of CHCH Channel 11, Hamilton and it was gay porn, to boot. "All beans & weenies - all the time."
