Another "Porn Industry Doomed (too)" article, but with some lobbying info FSC etc
From alternet the left wing grass roots yadayada newsletter/website.
The article starts with teh premise that like newspapers and the music industry etc, costless digital reproduction and the internet were dooming the porn industry as well. Them the article mentions some bits of good political news. Still mostly a puff piece, only worth reading if you are interested in this kind of thing. XXX: Is the Porn Industry Doomed? Like newspapers and other businesses buffeted by the financial crisis, the porn industry is in danger of extinction. http://www.alternet.org/sex/140012/x...dustry_doomed/ Obama appointed noted litigator David Ogden to the Justice Department's No. 2 post, deputy attorney general. Armed with a briefing prepared by Fidelis, a Catholic "family values" political action committee, Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah decried Ogden's representation, in his private practice, of the American Civil Liberties Union, Playboy Enterprises, Penthouse, and even the scandalous American Library Association. |

Dear Mr president,
I need a small bailout. 50 million dollars (tax free!) should be OK. I'm not greedy like banks, carmakers and wall street gamblers. I'll even write down a business plan and give you a handjob if you send the money.

Well you know boys, a nuclear reactor is a lot like women. You just have to read the manual and press the right button

I think to say that the industry is doomed is exaggerating. Sure it's probably been affected negatively by the economy and piracy but I wouldn't say that it is doomed.
Two responses to that article: "Flint even said it was a joke.. that he's making 400 billion per year.. that he didn't really need a bail out.. and still people hold it up as a sign that people are turning away from porn." "there will always be a market for a good B.J. movie..whatever the economy.. " |
