Blogcritics The critical lens on today's culture & entertainment
Man, am I sorry I missed this one – hard to believe an accident could be so sweet:
- A technical glitch at the local cable company caused a risque HBO comedy show to replace the morning news the other day. Some viewers complained they were seeing topless women, while hearing the newscasters. KSL is an NBC affiliate owned by the Mormon church.
The station doesn’t even carry “Saturday Night Live.” AT&T Broadband spokeswoman Barb Shelley is apologizing for the goof. Shelley said the cable company was testing new equipment and the video feed was switched incorrectly.

I think this was definitely better than seeing the newscasters and hearing the topless women, especially if you like topless women and aren’t that fond of Mormon newscasters.
