Porn Industry Begs for Help
It seems like everyone is looking for a government handout these days. With money being thrown at flailing industries left and right, with little oversight or control, it’s no wonder that more people are wanting to put a hand in the till.
So who better to step up and ask for assistance than Larry Flynt from Hustler? Flynt, along with Joe “Girls Gone WIld” Francis plan to request a $5 billion bailout for the adult entertainment industry. Yes, the pornmakers want some (more) of your money, too.
Actually the porn industry claims that they’ve been hurt by the economic downturn, as we all have. And as a “cherished” industry, they feel they deserve as much help as the next guy. People are so worried about money that they’re not having sex. The horror!
The point? In case you didn’t catch it, it’s a little tongue-in-cheek. No word from Congress as to whether they’re taking the request seriously.

I was just going to write about this. Of course, since porn sales went up when stimulus checks went out they might have a valid point.
They just don’t have a chance of getting the bailout money. Of course with all the pub they’re getting, I suspect their mission is already accomplished.
Flynt and Francis are masters of free publicity. It’s funny to see all the mainstream media falling for it.
i suppose the porn industry will be expecting a finacial bale-out from the british government too will they? FAT CHANCE! Sp1inter (added by Mobile using Mippin)
