Maybe the most unusual thing about profanity-laced porn playing over a Target store’s loudspeaker is that it’s happened before.
As
KCBS reports, a Target in San Jose had its typical muzak and easy listening soundtrack disrupted on Wednesday by x-rated moaning.
“My body said, 'Wait a minute, that's not right.' I was uneasy,” said Chris Minor, who took cell phone video of aghast shoppers.
The store apologized for the audio and things went back to normal, only to have the porn sounds begin playing a
second time.
Target issued a statement saying: “We are actively reviewing the situation with the team to better understand what happened and to help ensure this doesn't happen again. Because this is an active investigation, I'm unable to share additional details, but we want our guests to know that we take this very seriously."
This isn’t the first time a Target has played risqué sounds over the PA. As the
Chronicle notes, a Target in
San Luis Obispo did the same in July. That store was evacuated while staff scrambled to return the PA to banality.
