THIS IS CNN? CNN accidentally broadcast 30 minutes of hardcore porn last night.

Actually, just one CNN provider in Boston:

Yesterday night at 11PM EST, some viewers getting ready for a brand new episode of Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown on CNN were surprised to see that scheduled programming had been replaced by 30 minutes of adult entertainment.

The mess-up only affected people in Boston, as CNN’s broadcasting there is provided by RCN, a local television provider. Even though the news channel was sending through the right video signal, RCN managed to mess it up and provide viewers with something quite different.

Parts unknown, indeed.

UPDATE (FROM GLENN): To be honest, “Wolf Blitzer” always sounded like a porn name.
