the reason so many big owners of cable and hotel chains offer porn to their subscribers and guests is simple-there is a demand for it from the public, and a lot of money to be made from doing it. if there wasn't, then no one would be offering this content.
porn ceased to be the property of the sleazy strip joints and theaters in the 80's, thanks to the vcr and home video. porn moved from the bad part of town to everyone's living rooms. companies like time-warner saw this huge growth, and realized there was a huge market to be tapped here, and a lot of money to be made.
i didn't see the program, but it is one-sided and irresponsible journalism to portray these companies as if they are sleaze-mongers out to destroy people's moral values. as someone posted above, they should have asked around their own office about their co-workers exposure to porn. the answers may have surprised them. porn is no longer some dirty little secret.
