Porn industry asks for bail out

Now the porn industry is now asking for a bail out

Just seen Ben dover on News 24 and Larry flint is also asking for money in the US.

Surprised no one else picked up the story first.

No new porn, there could be riots in the streets.
Looks like the world really is in trouble.

Re: Porn industry asks for bail out

lol, is this for real?!

Wow, found it on the BBC site: BBC NEWS | Business | Porn bosses bid for bail out

Maybe with the money saved from the interest rate cut I should buy some XXX to help these poor guys out!

Watched a documentary on Larry Flint that was on anytime, didn't realise he was such a political activist, or that he had exposed 3 senators for adultery who where trying to impeach Clinton for the same thing or that he exposed (uhumm) that US rescue of the the female soldier that the Iraqi's had captured was infact completely faked.

So no doubt hes making some political point. I do remember reading the turnover of the American adult industry is higher than that of Hollywood in which case that's some serious tax revenue it creates.
