All in all it was a great call. I hope it all makes since.

Funny story. There's no reason to doubt it IMO, it's quite plausible
that such a call was made and such things were said.
But that doesn't mean that what the lady said is actually true, of
course. There's no way Dish has ever offered a free preview of any
of the porn channels. Keep in mind that to some people, showing
nipples is "porn". What this lady saw was a movie or series on one
of the premium movie channels during a free preview weekend.
Ahh the free porn was likely a movie package preview. You can set ratings locks
to prevent such a reoccurence. Some premiums are VERY close to porn.

You're not getting it. #1 - Either the caller was lying. Or #2 - The
caller was oblivious to the world and the host, who apparently knows dish,
was too stupid to ask what channel it was on so they think they got some
porno show, when in fact, they might have been watching HBO or Showtime
which regularly will broadcast R rated, and Unrated television at all hours
of the day. HBO and Showtime can sometimes go into free preview mode. I
don't think the Extasy channel ever does.
If the caller was as concerned by the content of television broadcasts as
she tried to imply, then she should have followed the advise of the CSR and
put blocks on the receiver boxes to prevent such programs from being
displayed. Though maybe she hasn't caught Fox or ABC or CBS, or any of the
broadcast networks after 7pm.
Hard Porn Interrupts TV Documentary
Thu June 19, 2003 09:52 AM ET
BERLIN (Reuters) - German viewers of a TV documentary on the human
body got more detail than they bargained for when the program was
interrupted by scenes of hardcore sex, a cable channel said on
Thursday.
Scores of outraged science fans called XXP TV to complain after an
episode from the BBC's "Superhuman" series examining respiratory
disorders was replaced by images of group sex from the Spice
Platinum channel involving one man and several women.
Monika Weitkamp of the Berlin-based documentary channel said the
cable carriers had mixed up the feeds. The voiceover for the
documentary, dubbed into German, continued during the pornographic
interlude.
