The Porn Industry Goes To Washington
Filed under: Joe Francis
Citing a recession-induced downturn in adult entertainment sales, Joe Francis and Larry Flynt are scheming to ask Uncle Same for a $5 million bailout.
Srsly!
Flynt reasons, "With all this economic misery and people losing all that money, sex is the farthest thing from their mind. It's time for Congress to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America."
A stimulus check might be better!
While Francis says, "Congress seems willing to help shore up our nation's most important businesses; we feel we deserve the same consideration."
Uh, we don't think that Congress is going to dole out cash to you just so you can fly to Cancun, inebriate underage girls, and film them taking off their clothes.
For some reason, we think they might have more important things on their minds.

Re: LaDiva welcomes 2009…. – ADIOS!
i'm so lost on here!
What a perv.
weh ehw ewh
so late as usual.
harry! i colored my hair…i'm not blonde anymore
Ball Gravy sales are down and MD is nowhere to be found, I need a GD bailout too!
What douchebags. There are bigger problems in the world than their money issues. I hope they end up homeless on the street. Maybe, just MAYBE, then they'll wake up.
What?! Are you serious?! I thought porn was a billion dollar industry! Washington should be asking them for pointers… I love my porn and all, but PLEASE use our money on something more useful!
Re: SBFREAKSgirl925 – Does the carpet match? Oh wait NO CARPET!
the buisness aint the same with out me sigh
LOL MY BOSS WAS TALKING ABOUT THAT TODAY
WTF those guys are stupid!
What a completely lame publicity stunt. Sex always sells and their profit margin may not be as large as it once was it's still way better than the average. I guarantee GGW or Hustler will not shut their doors. And if they did who gives a shit. Joe Francis the biggest douche bag of the century!
Larry Flynt's just being pushed along for the ride.
He has more makeup on than she does!
Big deal - check out your neighbors, like the rest of us!
Of course, old news again! Those two are out of their minds…
Re: LaDiva welcomes 2009…. – Hasta luego, LaDiva!
Who cares about that, we want to know who the girl is. She is tragically hot. All I want is one shot at going ball deep in her ass.
All the pornographers added together have been responsible for less Effin of the American Public than the Politicians In Washington do to us Every Single Day.
It would be worth comparing the economic impact of the porn industry to that of the auto industry.
Great publicity stunt….as an employee of a company that was given a loan from the FED….don't do it boys….having the Fed all up in your business is no fun. and some bastard will be leaking to the press how you spend your money.
Re: Frag The Paps –
She is not hot. You're retarded.
I'm sorry, but as long as you can find free porn on the internet, why the FUCK would you ever pay for it? For that matter, why the hell should the porn industry get a bailout? For fuck's sake (no pun intended) they're not a vital part of the economy and I'd rather see my tax dollars spent on something not as trashy.
This is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Sex is free that is why people have stopped paying to watch it. This is just so stupid lol
AHHHHHHH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh my god, David and I ( if you dont know who David is, don't ask) were flying to NY to see some shows ( many shows-Liza) and this fool, cokehead maniac was in front of us on Virgin, with that youngster of a teeny bopper girlfriend, snorting, and screaming, and laughing loudly. He is the worst! His girlfriend, who was pushed down by her head into his waist area is even more discusting.
Re: SarahK –
Not hot? Really?
whateverrrrr..asshole
Did he get a serious nose job? Cause he looks kinda normal. Could be the angle. Either way, he's a douche.
Maybe Joe should just sell his private jet, or one of his homes - just a thought. What an idiot.
Grrrr.
People suck.
Flynt is sitting on a gold mine, just like those crook ass Wall Street executive asking for a bailout from their good friends in Congress. You would think that with this economy in the crapper, more whores will be wanting to take their clothes off for Larry than ever.
Re: Deliliah Cohen – First of all, the girl in the picture is not his girlfriend…his girlfriend is Amber Hay…they are all cokeheads
I swear, if Congress gives these two a$$holes' money I will move to another Country!!!
Re: Frag The Paps –
Not unless your into transvestites.
No, really not tragically hot. Just tragic. Especially hanging out with him.
I think it's hilarious how upset people are getting at the fact that the porn industry is asking for money for a bailout! The bailout was passed in congress to fix the banking industry and buy up assets. If the car industry decided that they should get some of that money (allocated for banks!!!!!) then I don't see why any other industry should hesitate to ask the government for money.
People don't need porn to get off… Just a really good imagination.:0)
I've gotta agree with Perez. When you're right, you're right!
If that's done, then they'll bring back Joycelyn Elders to teach everyone how to jerk off. You can't have porn without release.
What …… how stupid is that. If they file or a bail out and get it I am doing it to . Shit we all should
i wish this was a joke. HELL NO! i can't believe they would expect taxpayers to bail out the PORN INDUSTRY?! really?! they are everything that's wrong with america.
the girl looks like a porn star that was on howard a while ago. bree somethin i think…..
"Uh, we don't think that Congress is going to dole out cash to you just so you can fly to Cancun, inebriate underage girls, and film them taking off their clothes."
Ummmm…. how the hell do you inebriate underage girls? Are you proposing that he kidnaps them, knocks them out, throws them on his jet, pours alcohol down their throats while they are unconscious, somehow wakes them up when they arrive in Cancun, pours more alcohol down their throats and then makes them take off their clothes while held at gun point while he films them?
You stupid fuck, sometimes you are just SO FUCKING LAME, everything that comes out of your mouth just defies all logic.
What a stupid assed comment!!! Clean your shit up you dumb ass, you have a literary responsibility to the people that visit your site to be at least somewhat intelligent about what you write….
It's shit like this that just makes me shake my head that you were able to suck some publisher off and get that piece of shit you call a book published!!
You sir are a fucktard.
actually, when congress started handing out money they opened the door for anyone to come and ask- so you can't fault them for asking. will they get any money? no, because something tells me they don't have lobbyists in washington paying elected officials to do their bidding.
oh god ,how cheeky is that!?!? I would be more then happy if the trashy porn industry that harms so many would go down,cant believe they want money can only hope they wont get any.People who pay for porn are Idiots and sad
Its $5 billion….not million. Its for publicity…..old news….
Hey FELECHER, hope you are sued for the underage comment.
Flynt is doing this to be facetious and prove a point — If the government is giving out money left and right to bailout other big companies, why not help out the adult industry too? Since all business is doing bad right now, why aren't we all entitled to bailouts?
This is being done more as political commentary than anything else. Corrupt banking agencies and fraudulent mortgage companies are given billions, but people who run their own businesses within the confines of the law are being ignored in this financial crisis. Wake up people!
With so many people willing to accept Sick Perversion of the Laws Of Nature as being normal today, my guess is anything is possible?
No actually, I don't think Congress does have more important things on their minds, that's why we are in this mess. And I don't think this loser "inebriate's" underage girls, I think they do it all to themselves and then he takes the pictures after he's handed a fake ID! Been there and done that.
I think the auto industry, which employs millions of people, is a bit different from Girls Gone Wild, which employs Joe Francis and one cameraman.
