- Sesame Street YouTube channel hacked, programming replaced with porn

Sesame Street's YouTube channel went XXX-rated Sunday, after hackers replaced its content with porn.
The popular children's show Website was pulled down as soon as bosses discovered videos of the much-loved muppets characters were replaced with sex tapes, according to reports.
The company issued an apology to viewers saying the "channel was compromised" and experts are working to restore content.
"We always strive to provide age-appropriate content for our viewers and hope to resolve this problem quickly," Sesame Street said in a statement on their Website.
One message posted beside some of the adult videos said: "Who doesn't like porn kids?", the BBC said.
San Francisco's KGO-TV reported one of the adult videos lasted eight minutes and none of them included the Sesame Street characters.
The YouTube channel has more than 140,000 subscribers and videos on the site have been viewed nearly half a billion times.
Google, which owns YouTube, said they removed the content as soon as they became aware of its inappropriate nature.
A message posted on the hacked page claimed two YouTube users were responsible, CNN reported.
One of the pornographic posts was allegedly by someone with the username "Mredxwx" but the YouTube user posted a video denying involvement.
"I did not hack Sesame Street. I am an honest youtuber," a statement on the 18-second video states.
"I work hard to make quality gameplay videos and most important I respect the community guidelines." Read more: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/2011/10/17/2011-10-17_sesame_street_youtube_channel_hacked_programming_replaced_with_porn.html#ixzz1b4vr0soY | |

But it would have been OK if there had been?  | |
