And now, the news in Swedish . . .

Swedish newscasters accidentally raised their ratings by accidentally re-broadcasting pornographic images:

Swedish state broadcaster SVT is in hot water after accidently broadcasting some sizzling Czech rumpy-pumpy as a backdrop to Saturday's midnight news, rather than the normal "output of other news channels", the BBC reports.

The "highly embarrassing and unfortunate" blunder occured on just one monitor, and only for 30 seconds before a panic-striken producer ran and switched channels, but that was enough for the Swedish tabloids which have predictably changed the show's name from Rapport to Rapporn.

There were no viewer complaints.

This is Sweden, of course.
