Finally, an Industry Worth Bailing Out: Porn

Bookmark and Share

Hustler Magazine publisher Larry Flynt and Joe Francis, the man who singlehandedly (sorry about that) revived cinéma vérité with his series of Girls Gone Wild documentaries, have written to congressmen Henry Waxman and Barney Frank (who oversees the House's Financial Services Committee) asking for a $5 billion bailout of the porn industry. Apparently, according to industry insiders, XXX DVD sales are off by 22 percent.

They just need to make the switch to the hi-def Blu-Ray format and package plastic rain parkas inside the DVD’s to promote porn so realistic, you’ll swear you were there!


Great way to start the new year with a porn bailout!


As the economy worsens and we have more wall-street jumpers, perhaps vicariously living through porn stars is the only consolation of the out-of-jobber. But seriously, what’s next?


The best part about this entire article is that it’s penned under the name ‘Rodney Anonymous’ which is CLEARLY a pornstar pseudo-name, much like Carla Cleavage, and Long Dong Silver.

I think Rodney needs to stop sockpuppeting now and properly disclose his ties to Larry Flynt and the national porn industry at large so that the Citypaper may continue to be viewed as an unbiased information source instead of a tool used to manipulate Philadelphia’s many porn addicts that would otherwise desperately seek to support a government bailout.

I encourage adults of legal age to flood free web sites with their LEGAL homemade pornography and help put these creeps out of business. Let’s face it, the porn industry is really a legalized prostitution ring where “actors” get paid to have sex on camera. At the same time, people who solicit prostitutes are laughed at, and the hookers are thrown in jail. Yet, the media thinks porn stars are cool and mainstream. WTF is wrong with this country? Lets take back our bedroom and sex. Legalize prositition and sex clubs, and boycott porn.
