CNN: pØrn industry seeks federal bailout
 
WASHINGTON (CNN) — Another major American industry is asking for assistance as the global financial crisis continues: Hustler publisher Larry Flynt and Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis said Wednesday they will request that Congress allocate $5 billion for a bailout of the adult entertainment industry.

“The take here is that everyone and their mother want to be bailed out from the banks to the big three,” said Owen Moogan, spokesman for Larry Flynt. “The pØrn industry has been hurt by the downturn like everyone else and they are going to ask for the $5 billion. Is it the most serious thing in the world? Is it going to make the lives of Americans better if it happens? It is not for them to determine.”

Francis said in a statement that “the US government should actively support the adult industry's survival and growth, just as it feels the need to support any other industry cherished by the American people."

“We should be delivering [the request] by the end of today to our congressmen and [Secretary of the Treasury Henry] Paulson asking for this $5 billion dollar bailout,” he told CNN Wednesday.


Flynt and Francis concede the industry itself is in no financial danger — DVD sales have slipped over the past year, but Web traffic has continued to grow.

But the industry leaders said the issue is a nation in need. "People are too depressed to be $exually active," Flynt said in the statement. "This is very unhealthy as a nation. Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without $ex."

"With all this economic misery and people losing all that money, $ex is the farthest thing from their mind. It's time for congress to rejuvenate the $exual appetite of America. The only way they can do this is by supporting the adult industry and doing it quickly."

So far, there has been no congressional reaction to the request.

Why should anyone be surprised? And, no doubt Congress will spend time debating this, too!

Meh, I just don't see how the adult video industry is that critical to the United States economy. Besides, I got free videos...

Why do people like this insist on wasting the time of our government? The **** industry according to the article is quite healthy.

To make a point at how absurd these bailouts are. Joe Citizen wanted nothing do do with bailing out Financial Institutions and Private Industry. I hope it opens peoples eyes to what's become of our Government...
