OK, so two of you gave me some grief about not including certain porn bloggers in a thread intended to demonstrate what a douchebag Skurt Locklaw can be. No problem. Here's a thread dedicated solely to the dudes who bang out the porn gossip and scoops day in and day out. You motherfuckers come correct with your takes on these dudes. If I forgot someone, sorry: fill it in.
Blogger:
Gene Ross
Site URL:
www.adultfyi.com (or 411 pornstars.com, depending on who is running his website today)
Plus: At or near the top of the pile. Gets lots of scoops. Conversational style of writing is comfortable, like you were sitting down to drink with someone at the local pub.
Minus: Odd coupling with Wankus and Skeeter Kerkove.
Blogger:
Luke Ford
Site URL:
www.lukeisback.com
Plus: Takes a healthy skeptical stance on the porn business. Is blunt in calling "a spade a spade."
Minus: Hasn't written much of his own in the last 2 years, prefers to quote others; three XPT regulars offered to help L-ke regain his name in
www.lukeford.com...he abdicated; alienated a respected XPT'er named Holly. Writes like the alienated Jew that he is.
Blogger:
Tod Hunter aka JRV
Site URL:
www.tod-hunter.net
Plus: Good writer and reviewer; long time in the porn business...tons of contacts
ergo lots of stories.
Minus: Too many press releases, TH should write more and quote less. When he writes, it's good stuff.
Blogger:
Gram Ponante
Site URL:
www.gramponante.com
Plus: Sense of cynical humor goes into his writing. It masks a general disdain for pornography that is not generated by religious principles; Gram just wants to parley this blog into a better writing gig. But still one of the best writing styles around.
Minus: Egocentric....and it shows off in his writing. He is the superior one.
Blogger:
Jim DiGiorgio
Site URL:
www.simplyjimmyd.com
Plus:
Longtime veteran of the porno biz..probably had lots of drunken talks with Holliday and others, which
must have been classics.
Minus: Why the crap can't I find his site anymore?
Blogger:
Monstar (aka Mon* or M*)
Site URL:
www.contactportstars.com
Plus: Publicity agent to many of the best-looking whores in the business, M* hangs and parties with the best of the porn buizz, and there is
no denying that. Still talks the best porn-smak.
Minus: More publicity than porn blogger now, but the M* is cool with it.
Blogger:
Cindi Loftus
Site URL:
http://www.cindisnakedtruth.com
Plus: Connects with lots of whores who can't get into the mainstram tabloid rags.
Minus: Connected with Mary Carey, who got herself into every two-bit rag.
Blogger:
John T Bone
Site:
http://www.johntbone.com/
Plus: John has basically become a self-appointed industry consultant to help business degenerates deal with other business degenrates. Has a thing for Thailand.
Minus: Cool blogger. Too focused on the business, would have a better audience if he was a little more consumer-oriented.
Blogger:
David from MPR
Site:
www.mypornoreview.com
Plus: Umm...pictures of scantily-clad Hillary Scott
Minus: Rascist douchebag. And I can get better pictures of Hillary on Freeones.
Blogger: The dude from
Pornohs
Site:
www.ponrohs.com
Plus: most hilarious porn blog site on the 'net...pant-wetting fun
Minus: abandonded site due to Skurty Lockwoof rant...cock blockwood is a tool.
Blogger:
Mike South
Site:
www.mikesouth.com
Plus: I never got a chance to meet Mike, proprietor of
www.mikesouth.com. Mike has even showed up at some racey shindigs before, with women who might be his cohabitation
Minus: Mike is considered "outside the mainstream." Even when Mike is more truth than fiction, he gets shut out. Sorry I clipped youu from the first list, Mike, my bad.
