Glitch Causes Shopping Channel To Air stuff

Shopping Channel Airs stuff When Wires Cross
N.H. Viewers Get More Than They Bargained For

MANCHESTER, N.H. -- A cable company says it's not Sure why, but some New Hampshire TV viewers got more than they bargained for on a shopping channel.

For a while Friday afternoon, the shop-at-home QVC channel in Manchester broadcast adult stuff.

Comcast says it doesn't know how the wires were crossed or how many customers were affected. It's trying to figure out what happened.



The things you can buy from the comfort of your own home :lol: :lol: :lol:

I wonder how many wive's stopped calling their husbands into the room to ask them if they could buy that pair of Birkenstocks they've always wanted.

On the other hand...I wonder how many wives said "the heck with the Birkenstocks...come to Mama"
