Here is the sad truth about the media today: They want to be spoon fed a sensational story, they won't check any facts, but they will report it in a way that implies fact.

If anyone in the media had bothered to check, they would see that most of the porn companies (including publicly traded companies and well known entities) are suffering along with everyone else. The only (very slight) potential for a boost for the porn industry is that some of these people may have used their checks to get their credit card balances out of the red, which in theory means they can join a porn site (or a health club, or buy dinner... or pretty much anything else you can do with a credit card).

I am more confident that local bars, dealers, and hookers did really well around check time. But since none of them have a spin doctor to send out vapid press releases, well...
