Adult Entertainment Industry Wants a Bailout


Joanna Ossinger
FOXBusiness


With the financial industry, auto makers and more getting assistance from the federal government to stay afloat during the recession, the adult industry decided it would try to get something as well.

Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis and “Hustler” magazine publisher Larry Flynt have said they will petition Congress for financial aid along the lines of what the Big Three auto makers are getting.

Francis said that he and Flynt are asking for $5 billion, and that they have sent letters to Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, Congress and their local Congressman, Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) with the proposal. Rep. Waxman's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

With the $5 billion, they would "invest in building new means of distribution, and shoring up our distribution right now to prevent further erosion from factors like Youporn and other Internet content that has seriously affected our business over the past few years," Francis said in an interview with FOX Business. "We will use the money wisely, and we will create more jobs."

Francis said that if invited, he and Flynt would drive across the country in a hybrid vehicle to present their plans to Congress.

The press release noted that DVD sales and rentals for the adult industry have decreased by 22% in the past year, partially because people are turning more and more to the Internet for adult content.

"People are too depressed to be sexually active," Flynt said in the press release. "This is very unhealthy as a nation. Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without sex."

Francis said he and Flynt would also be willing to discuss the possibility of the government buying equity stakes in their companies, as was done with financial firms.

"If the government would like to be a partner with Mr. Flynt and I, we’re certainly amenable to it," he said.

Flynt's representative said he was unavailable to comment for this article beyond the press release.

Haha....I can't believe it. Actually, I can, but what do you expect out of scumbags like them.

There is a deep crack in the way the Bush administration would fill the void of economic redistribution. Larry knows how to irritate the pussies in Washington and has done so for many years. He would just like them to spread the wealth and expand the ultimate exposure. After all he is a

I doubt it but that doesn't make it irritate me any less. But just the fact that he manages to get any attention at all gives false credence to his relevance.
Yeah it's a free country and he's free to be the piece of shit he is. And I'm free to wish his attempted assassin years ago had been a little better shot.

And how are the GM or Chrysler execs any less of a scumbag?

I think Flynt is trying to make a point, because there's no way he can expect to make a dime on this.

Seems to me he's making a mockery of Congress. And if that's the case, I approve!

Why am I not surprised? Perhaps the difference is that although a case can obviously be made for corporate mismanagement, greed and what have you by the auto execs, unlike Larry Flynt, they haven't made a career out of glorifying all that is truly perverse, depraved, degenerate and in some cases pure evil.

Sure, but Larry Flynt didn't create perverts... Perverts created him.

If he isn't feeding the demand, someone else will.

Notorious,

I am getting the idea you don't like this guy very much.... Please, tell us how you really feel, don't sugar coat it. (LOL)


I do have to agree with Central Coaster on all accounts thus far....


And nobody on here is going to convince me they haven't clicked any of the pop ups that come up online from time to time.... especially not Jeff (knowing exactly where the last two avatars are from )

Just my $0.02
