"They should have immediately taken it off and not waited 25 minutes"

First, a disclaimer: KIDS SHOULD NOT WATCH PORN!! Hell, adults probably shouldn't watch it either.

That said, I just love this story
. Subtext all over the place. My favorite part is when the mom actually records some of the porn and calls police. What? You have a random VHS of porn. What use will that be as evidence?

You can kind of tell what was going on - you know, daughter probably says 'looks what's on,' mom freaks, dad probably says,'I'm calling the cable company!!...but leave the t.v. on, I want to describe exactly what kind of filth they're polluting us with!' The article actually quotes dad as saying the porn was the "hardest-core stuff" he'd ever seen. Hmmm (!?).

Notice that there is zero mention in the article of actually turning off the television or changing the station. Maybe the reporter just left that out. But it seems like kind of an important detail if the focus of the article is to be the family's outrage and disgust with what was aired.
