Dude. Are you freaking serious? The article is short enough for me to post it here...
Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt is offering $1 million to anyone who can provide proof of an illicit sexual encounter with a high-ranking government official.
In a full-page ad in The Washington Post, Flynt asked for "documented evidence of illicit sexual or intimate relations with a congressperson, senator or other prominent officeholder."
He said he would pay up to $1 million for material that could be verified and published in Hustler.
Flynt ran a similar ad in October 1998, during the height of the Monica Lewinsky scandal that led to the impeachment of President Bill Clinton.
The publisher took credit for the resignation of House Speaker-designate Bob Livingston, who admitted he'd had extramarital affairs after word got out that Flynt was investigating him.
Is this what politics boils down to? I guess sex really does sell. Maybe this is what it'll take for some people to gain an interest in anything even slightly politically related.
What's the point of this, anyway? Oh dear...
