LA's Daily News Does Porn
The newspaper isn't actually, ya know, performing in movies or anything. That would be just plain silly. And weird. And a stupid joke. The not-LA Times is covering the industry in a 6-part series called "Exposed: Porn In The Valley". Each section discusses a particular facet (history, health, finance, etc.) of the 90 trillion-dollar-a-year business.
We're kinda stoked they didn't call the series "eXXXposed".
The whole thing is nothing special, but it's worth a read. Think of it like a college survey class: useless fodder for cocktail parties without any real analysis or insight.
Part 1: The Valley's secret industry
Part 2: Porn and health
(The rest of the package isn't supposed to be made available until later in the week, but because we're so brilliant we figured out a way around this.)
Part 3: The economics of porn
Part 4: Porn in the mainstream
Part 5: The war against porn
Part 6: Porn and the family
And to the individual responsible for producing the online package: There was no reason to use Flash.
