The Pious Pornographers
CBC reports on how "large corporations are involved in the sale of pornography through the ownership of satellite and cable television systems." The main finding is that Bell ExpressVu, a blue-cheap, well-respected Canadian company, has been breaking the country's broadcasting rules by showing violent hard-core porn. The story reveals that pornography has become a lucrative industry that is seducing also some American giants like General Motors, AT&T and Time-Warner.
