    Hackers hack Comcast tv during the Super Bowl and put in a 30 second porn clip

    Not that I'm claiming to know the answer to "how do you hack a TV station", however I'd assume if it wasn't an inside job, e.g. someone who knows someone working at either the TV station or Comcast that got access to the feed and substituted it for something else.

    If you want the more movie fantasy of hacking a TV station check this clip out of the Movie Hackers hacking a TV network.
