A local TV station in the USA broke down: A porn clip was playing in the background while the weather report was being broadcast.
Viewers watching a weather report in Washington state were shocked when a short pornographic clip aired during the evening show. When the meteorologist Michelle Boss told the viewers of the CBS TV subsidiary KREM 2 that they can expect nice weather after a sunny weekend with mild temperatures, she had no idea about the porn clip that was running in the background at the same time, such as the “Indian Express” “reported.

Neither the moderators nor the director had reacted to the clip, it said. Many viewers then called the Spokane-based news channel to alert those responsible to the clip. The case is currently being investigated by a special unit of the local police. “The incident led to numerous calls from concerned citizens in the city and district. The investigation is currently ongoing,” said the police in a statement.
Hours after the mistake, the news channel apologized for the unfortunate event during the 11pm show: “An inappropriate video was broadcast in the first part of the show. We are working hard to ensure that something like this does not happen again.”
