Error Puts Strippers on Public Access TV

Sat Apr 2, 1:49 AM ET Strange News - AP



POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. - Viewers expecting to see the latest local meeting on their public access channel got an eyeful recently when Cablevision played a tape of nude dancers accidentally.



The mistake affected customers in parts of Dutchess, Ulster, Putnam and Orange counties.


Hopewell Junction resident George Morton returned home from Palm Sunday Mass and turned on his television to see a striptease contest.


"I thought, this is terrible," Morton said. "I don't get HBO or anything like that."


Cablevision said Thursday it was not a public access program and that a "program switching error" occurred.


"When it was detected, the programming was removed immediately," Cablevision spokesman Bill Powers said. "We have taken appropriate steps to prevent this from happening again."


Morton said he planned to file a complaint with the Federal Communications Commission.

Thanks for moving this to the appropriate Thread. Everything seems to get blown out of proportion.

I simply started a thread in the wrong forum. I was not bashing Cablevision, I just thought that the information was funny thats all.

You call them as you own bias sees it. That's evident in every post of yours. Wondering if you hate VOOM so much as to make it your agenda to crowd every thread with your venom, what you are doing here. There's no reason for you childish. Just leave the VoOMers alone. They come here to ask questions and get information not to be bombarded with your nonsense.

Just for the record, I thought the original post in this thread was funny. :D

Sean, it's bad enough that Dragon002 feels he has to crowd every thread, but it's even worse that he feels he has to continue to send PMs to people (myself, specifically) who have already advised him that PMs from him are unwelcome and will be made public. Got this one last evening about 5:30 PM, under the heading: ota.

ota antenna is shipped along with the dish and irds. the diplexers and remotes come at a later date via ups



ps vooms DONE
Too bad the ignore feature can't put a lock on the offender's access to our PM address. I won't shut off my PMs just to rid myself of him...but I'll assure him again that they are unwelcome, and that every single one will end up public, if he continues. That's not a threat...that's a promise. Vicki

[Sean Mota]

Isn't it unbeliable that he has to resolve to this type of childish behavior? Gee, this is just unbelievable... what a character?
