Cable giant Comcast is investigating how hardcore pornography was broadcast Tuesday morning during Handy Manny, a popular cartoon program on The Disney Channel. Spokeswoman Beth Bacha described the incident as an “isolated issue in a local New Jersey facility that we immediately detected and corrected promptly.” The incident was first reported Wednesday in the New York Daily News. Comcast declined to provide the duration of the pornography broadcast, how many homes it reached, how the mistake happened and whether anyone will be disciplined for the X-rated error. -- Miriam Hill
