Jazz FM Apologise After 'Gay Porn' Streams Over Radio Show

A UK-based jazz radio station has been forced to apologise – after the audio track of a homosexual porn film was accidentally played in the background of the show for a number of minutes.
The incident, which occurred a couple of days ago on February 18th, happened during an almost appropriately named section of the program called ‘Funky Sensation’, and saw the adult film turn the radio-waves blue for a short while before it was swiftly turned off by staff who’d noticed the clips playing.
The Jazz FM show, which is hosted by Mike Vitti, is pre-recorded – so it’s unknown just how they managed to get the sound of the pornographic film, which they described as ‘mostly wordless’ playing in the background, though it seems like it may have been a hacker or prankster who accessed the live feed. Vitti has since apologised for the incident – check out the statement below.
“Unfortunately we had an unauthorised access to the live feed on Jazz FM on Saturday 18th February at 7:15pm which resulted in a highly regrettable incident. Please accept our profound and sincere apologies for any offence that may have been caused and rest assured we have taken steps to ensure that there will be no repeat of this incident.”
