New Zealand TV Channel switches Porn for Rugby

Rugby fans who tuned into a mid-afternoon highlights show got more than they bargained for Sunday when they were treated to four minutes of hardcore pornography.
A spokesman for Prime Television on Monday blamed a mixup in "distribution processes" for the error which inserted the hardcore segment in the regular program "Grassroots Rugby." Grassroots..that's gold.
The segment was intended to air on an adult pay-per-view channel.
Rival television channels reported some viewers were "shocked and disgusted" by the mixup, which occurred around mid-afternoon. Sure they were.
Prime has apologized for the error.

was Bryon Kelleher in the Rugby? or was his ex in the Porn?
The new reality TV show in NZ, "The naked shearer" hasn't got off to the best start then....
Was that the new show being hosted by Jamie's brother Anton?
they'll do any thing to increase the audiences in NZ!!!
thats hillarious.
Grassroots? An agricultural programme, then?

thats good to know!
BOKKE“Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White
That is awesome. Gotta be one of the mistakes of the year!
