Marriott Hotels to Ban Porn

gonzo · 07-24-2006

...Marriott Hotels has banned smoking from their rooms -- now Concerned Women for America is wondering when the chain is going to ban another health hazard: pay-per-view pornography. "We've been after Marriott for years to stop providing pay-per-view porn," says Jan LaRue, CWA's chief counsel. "But their excuse is that 'some' customers want it." LaRue figures that percentage of customers is relatively small -- say, five percent. "If it's only about five percent, they've lost that excuse," she maintains. "I'm guessing that their cut from porn is a lot bigger than their cut from cigarette machines in the lobby." In its announcement, Marriott cited that the demand for non-smoking rooms "continues to rise with new information from the Surgeon General on the hazards of secondary smoke." LaRue wonders why the worldwide hotelier is listening only the report about health hazards related to smoking. "What about former Surgeon General C. Everett Koop's report on the dangerous consequences of viewing pornography?" she asks. "What about the mental and psychological health consequences related to dependency on porn?" LaRue suggests that Marriott eliminate pornography as an amenity, thereby creating what she describes as a "truly safe and wholesome environment" -- and likely seeing a boost in sales as a result.

Typical, using medical mumbo jumbo to push their concept of morality. CWA fails to mention one very important difference between smoking and PPV porn. The latter has no effect on the next guest that uses the room.

Nothing missleading about the title of your thread there, Gonzo.

That busybody bitch won't be happy until the world thinks the way she does, but I wonder if she really has any idea how much money Mariott would lose if they did remove porn from their TVs?
