VAN NUYS, Calif. - When Comcast decided to offer a credit to its customers as an apology for allowing porn to interrupt their Super Bowl Sunday, the cable company probably didn't expect an adult studio to follow suit. When Pink Visual's subsequent offer of discounted access to some of its websites crossed mainstream news desks, the media's erroneous reportage sparked a minor controversy.
For the record, Pink Visual noted Monday, the "accidental porn" footage wasn't theirs. As reported by AVN Online, the clip was from a Fusxion production entitled Wild Cherries 5 that was airing concurrently with football's big game on the Club Jenna-affiliated Shorteez channel offered by Spice Entertainment.
"Our promotion was simply a ‘wink' playing off the Comcast offer and making light of the whole situation," said Kim Kysar, Pink Visual brand and product manager. "While the incident was regrettable, we felt there was humor to be found in it and an opportunity to expose our content to a new audience, naturally."
Kysar was firm in stating her company had nothing whatsoever to do with the interruption of the Super Bowl broadcast.
"We aren't James Bond villains," she said. "We don't have any desire to take over anybody else's broadcast, much less the technical capability to do so, and we don't advocate exposing viewers to pornography without warning and consent."
Pink Visual's "$10-off" promotion continues through Friday, March 6. The reduced-price offer applies to two of the company's standard adult websites, PinkVisualPass.com and MaleSpectrumPass.com, as well as two of its mobile sites, iPinkVisualPass.com and iMaleSpectrumPass.com.
To receive the $10 discount, customers must type "pornbowl" into the "Promo Code" box on the join form.
