Has corporate media or any Dem politician brought up Larry Flint's
Edited on Thu May-12-05 06:31 PM by paineinthearse
allogations (Plato's Retreat, forced sex, etc.)?

I watched the SFRC session on CSPAN3 and just now watched Barbara Boxer on Hardball. Not a word.

Has anyone seen this in the major media yet? Or perhaps the Dems are letting it percolate?

1. It just came out today
Al Franken mentioned I think.

We'll just have to wait, but in the mean time, feel free to write a few choice letters to the editor.

Cheers

3. Yeah...
It was mantioned or alluded to several times on AAR this morning. That means it is starting to percolate. It will hit the MSM eventually, probably as soon as they sober up or something.

5. The MSM are all trying to remember the terms of the paper they
signed to get into Plato's Retreat, hard to remember with the coke and all...

There is an interesting article on Buzzflash about the ex-wife of some Repug biggie who was always getting analized by her hubby against her will (he claimed he couldn't tell one hole from the other-and he's a doctor!) and taking cash from him for sexual favors during their marriage. He is now some family values poohbah.

I am struggling to resist all the baby's head type jokes I know and about to burst a vein.

10. Hager. Article is in The Nation: link below:

Hager is, however, descended from the Viking warlord Hagar the Assman, also known as Numbpecker the Horrible.

wrote about in The Handmaid's Tale.
