When viewers tuned in to see the newest episode of Anthony Bourdain’s Parts Unknown on Thanksgiving night, they got something they did not expect: 30 minutes of hardcore pornography.
The mistake only affected viewers in Boston. CNN’s television provider in the Boston area, was shocked to find that despite broadcasting the correct video signal they had pressed the wrong button, subjecting innocent viewers to 30 minutes of unsavory content.
The public’s been begging CNN to broadcast porn for 20 years and now that they go through with it everyone’s upset? https://t.co/qjGcxShzSM

While it looks likely that this was an accident, it is interesting that the mistake lasted for a full half-hour segment. Also interesting is the fact that the Boston television provider had a pornographic button in the first place.
The thirty minutes of adult entertainment was fortuitously aired at a time when most children would be asleep, but it was likely a shock to many anxiously awaiting the newest episode of the travel show.
