Sex.com Taps Tom Hymes to Develop Consumer News Channel

Escom, LLC, the company behind the new Sex.com, announced today that it has hired Tom Hymes as its News Director.

Hymes, who will also provide PR services for the company, will be responsible for developing the Sex.com News Channel and will also help develop and produce exclusive Sex.com radio and T.V. shows for the site.

The Sex.com News Channel will ultimately provide a comprehensive daily menu of breaking news and information of interest to contemporary adult audiences, as well as more insightful and entertaining stories, interviews and features about celebrities, modern culture and, of course, the adult entertainment industry.

?Adding someone who has the talent and intrinsic qualities like Tom to our team is a major step forward for us,? stated CEO/President Del Anthony. ?I believe his insight and experience will play a major role in helping create an informative and innovative News Channel for our site that will keep adults coming back time and time again.?

?I?m thrilled to have this opportunity to help create the ultimate adult consumer destination for news and entertainment on the Internet,? Hymes said. ?We?re building an amusement park at the intersection of mainstream and adult. When people realize the breadth of what Sex.com is and the quality of its partners, and experience its richness of content and abundance of e-commerce opportunities, I?m confident they will be as enthusiastic as I am about this very unique property.?

Congrats to everyone at Sex.com, great move. Site is moving along very nicely.
Can't wait to see it all up and done. I think after all these years, someone has the right idea for that domain.

what about weather and sports? will i get daily updates on unrest in the middle east at sex.com as well?

unreal that it can go from being one of the adult webs most profitable sites ran by a lunatic who at least had a little common sense... to one of the most depressing stories in porn history that only gets worse and worse.

This is about as spot on as can be.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

Sex.com IS sex.com because everyone types it in directly looking for... get this... SEX!!! Unreal to fathom I know but people are not typing in "SEX NEWS" and ending up on sex.com.

SEX.COM = FAIL

People want SEX. I think when you guys give it to them, you may be able to get this dot com thing figured out and clean house with it.

Congrats to Tom.

I also agree "SEX NEWS" is not something that would work on sex.com. It's been idol for what? 4 years now and every few months we hear news that "some person" has been hired to make Sex.com a success story.

Gary had the right idea, Sex.com = adult ppc system for adult webmasters. Sell the traffic to those that can use it. Or run the biggest fucken adult vod site on the net. They have a great name, but they have just let it go down and down.

I really hope for Tom's sake he can get it back to a traffic rich site.

Now, now, wait for the concept at least before dragging it through the mud by assuming things.
Tom's a great asset to any company so I haven't a doubt about the fact that they WILL try creating something of interest to consumers. Will it pan out as expected? Time will tell.
Good luck to both parties.

Not to disagree with anyone here. But if you look at the success of Gay.com, It has all the Gay content in there but yet it looks like a mainstream front.

I have a pretty good idea what they are trying to do with Sex.com and if it's what I'm thinking, It can be a very profitable and user friendly.

Again, Just my opinion.

How you doing buddy,
No, we slowed down with Ballr. We signed a Rock Band and fter 25 years of friendship, the band split up on their first tour. (Always Something!) They did get some good radio plays.

This seems like a massive waste. Turn it into a massive MGP / tube site and start making back dome of the millions this domain cost.

Gay.com is a great looking site. The mainstream front doesn't matter. the main thing Gay.com does is it caters properly to the audience and it is really themed as a gay personals site.
