A new Susie Bright column in Salon, on how the pornography crusaders have have figured out that absent any indications that porn harms women (in fact, in the face of overwhelming evidence that it doesn't) and have brought up harm to children as their next straw man. Meanwhile, the vast right-wing conspiracy hasn't lost its distaste for tales of pornographic downfall and redemption like Gene McConnell's. But as a marketing strategy, it's replaced Linda Lovelace with Tinky Winky. I guess these days you just can't raise enough money for the cause of saving grown-up women from unspeakable depravities, because frankly, the big girls have already spoken for themselves.
