Monday, Comcast apologized to cable television customers in the Tucson, Arizona area for the fact the Super Bowl broadcast was briefly interrupted by a porn clip that aired for thirty seconds.

Moreover, the company informed that it was in the process of investigating the incident, assuring viewers that they would aggressively pursue all clues and not stop until they had found the reason for the mishap.

Comcast also expressed their outrage at the inappropriate disruption.

Jennifer Khoury, Comcast's vice president for corporate communications, stated that the company believed that the incident had been a malicious act of an isolated nature, drawing on the results of the investigation.

Tucson media outlets informed that they had received calls from angry viewers who had complained about the pornographic content having been aired during the football game seconds after Arizona's Larry Fitzgerald scored his second touchdown of the fourth quarter, which put the Cardinals ahead.

Nevertheless, the Arizona Cardinal lost the football match to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Their 27-23 victory managed to translate as the second-most viewed Super Bowl in history, having had a total audience of 147 million viewers, Nielsen Media Research revealed.

Furthermore, the kick-off game on February 1 scored an average number of 95.4 million viewers, which rendered it the third most-watched television broadcast ever, behind winner CBS' series finale of "MASH" in 1983 and runner-up last year's Super Bowl, with 106 million viewers and 97.5 million, respectively.

This year, the Super Bowl is offered by NBC, while last year, Fox network was the one to broadcast the football games.
