Activists to target porn agents in latest push for increased regulation
Quote:
An advocacy group that has been demanding greater government protections for adult film performers plans to file a complaint Thursday with state regulators against nine Los Angeles-area porn talent agencies.
AIDS Healthcare Foundation officials, opening a new front in their fight with the porn industry, said they plan to send a letter to State Labor Commissioner Angela Bradstreet arguing the agencies encourage porn performers to engage in unsafe sex that puts them at risk of contracting sexually transmitted diseases.
?Many of these agents are callous enough to describe the unprotected sexual acts their clients will engage in on a checklist on their websites as cavalierly as if one was ordering off a menu in a restaurant,? said Michael Weinstein, the foundation?s president.
The nonprofit foundation, based in Los Angeles, has been campaigning for increased regulation of the porn industry since a 2004 HIV outbreak among performers in the San Fernando Valley.
Agencies named in the complaint include A List Talent, ATMLA , Gold Star Modeling, LA Direct Models, Lisa Ann?s Talent Management, Metro Talent Management, SpieglerGirls.com, Type 9 Models, Inc. and World Modeling, according to Weinstein.

I havent liked the AIDs Healthcare Foundation people since I met them and now I finally get to be a part of the litigation...
I can only guess the producers are going to be next... they will not stop until the industry is gone and not only in LA. I understand they are about to take their fight to Florida.
