Did you look at the screen working before you bought it? How did you carry it to your car or home? Holding it under your arm might have caused that pattern.
I got the TV for almost free, (a friend of a friend). But never bothered to turn the TV on till I got home. I was very careful carrying the TV out to my pickup truck which was padded to protect the TV. I'll live with it because of how cheap I got it, but just was curious what's caused this.
