American Idol Results Revealed Early

So I was up at work last night watching the American Idol finale. I work in a military installation and we get like 6 or 7 channels. We get the major networks plus CNN, HNN, History channel, Discover. Ok maybe 8 or 9 channels.
During one of the commercials at about 8:30, near the end of American Idol, I flipped through the channels and saw a headline on HNN that said "Jordin Sparks wins American Idol". I'm like yo WTF? The show said "LIVE!!" throughout it. Never did I see "recorded from an earlier show" or whatever. Obviously it wasn't live because the results were already known on the east coast. It was also on several websites before it was on TV here. So WTF yo? There should be some sort of non-disclosure rule to the networks or major websites. Show has to be over EVERYWHERE before results are shared.
