First the banks, then car manufacturers; when will Big Porn receive bailout money for years of steadily dropping DVD sales? Larry Flynt’s hat is in his hand so yours will remain free.
Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis and Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt are petitioning the newly convened 111th Congress to provide a financial bailout for the adult entertainment industry.
Adult industry leaders Flynt and Francis sent a joint request to Congress asking for $5 billion in federal assistance, “Just to see us through hard times,” Francis said. “Congress seems willing to help shore up our nation’s most important businesses, we feel we deserve the same consideration. In difficult economic times, Americans turn to entertainment for relief. More and more, the kind of entertainment they turn to is adult entertainment.”
Flynt did not say if the $5 billion would help subsidize employee parking in his building, nor did Francis earmark the funds for his legal fees. But it’s all in good fun. Maybe Francis will hook Congress up with some GGW hats and mini-tees if it shows him its titties.
