Porn Bailout: Flynt & Francis Seek Gov Money


www.huffingtonpost.com
"Is porn recession proof?" According to porn magnate Larry Flynt (Hustler founder/publisher) and "Girls Gone Wild" king Joe Francis, the answer is no.
...
With all this economic misery and people losing all that money, sex is the farthest thing from their mind," Flynt says. "It's time for Congress to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America."

Francis sees his industry like the big three automakers, only BIGGER: "Congress seems willing to help shore up our nation's most important businesses; we feel we deserve the same consideration."

Last time I checked, Robert Guccione was the founder of Penthouse.

Thanks GoalPoster... i stand corrected, forgive me for confusing Penthouse for Hustler. Note; you could cut me a little slack, he publishes over 30 different titles. I enjoy the genre but i am no porn connoisseur. If this may keep you up at night, don't fret... i have already made the correction within minutes of your notice. For future reference, next time you want to inform someone of such a harmless mishap, it would show more class and courtesy to the OP and your fellow ATSers to just u2u the OP poster, easy fix. Your proofreading skills are truly appreciated but posting it here is just a waste of a read for everyone, except me. ...or are your motives out of resentment, because i think highly of Flynt? My motive to address this here versus u2u is that i hope this will also server an example for others.

As for those who show a bias against Flynt, you should really suspend your knee-jerk reactions to his chosen profession. If Flynt was was on ATS he would blend right in, and believe it or not most of you would learn to like him. This guy is fearless, there is no subject under the sun he won't speak his mind about. Read a few of
Flynt's thoughts on most of the taboo issues we attempt to address here and you'll see what i mean... and if you aren't impressed with his progressive views and activism for free-speech then you can't deny that he is a brilliant business man.

If you assume the porn biz is a cake walk, consider the amount of competition and repetition.
