I think that falls into the "you can't buy this kind of publicity" category.

I wonder how much Diney paid 'em

When we were turing on all the new locals in june ( Directv rolled out 40 new local markets in june) most of our tech glitches when we were switchin things around had disney station on the new stations... dont know if they were using it as a place holder channel or what but was nation wide, not just select cities.

this wasnt to well publisized simply cuz it happened the first 2 days of them being available. not to many people knew of it simply cuz hardley anyone actually opens there bills up anymore...

It sounds like it was truly a glitch in this case.

On Monday night between about 8:30 and 11:30, many of Comcast's digital-cable subscribers in Washington were shown nothing but the Disney Channel on all of the company's channels. The clicker was useless for about an hour solid and then several times thereafter for several minutes each time.

I'm trying to imagine my remote loving husband clicking merrily away and getting nothing but the Disney Channel.
