Porn Producers Threaten To Leave LA County After Passage Of Measure B

CBS Los Angeles:

LOS ANGELES (CBS) — Some things just go together. Peanut butter and jelly, cheese and crackers … porn and the San Fernando Valley.

After voters approved Measure B on election day — an ordinance that would require porn actors to wear condoms while making XXX films — producers are threatening to leave Los Angeles County.

The Valley without porn production?!

More than 55% of voters passed Measure B sending shock waves through the porn industry.

Juan Fernandez, reporting for CBS2 and KCAL9, spoke to Michael Weinstein of the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, the organization that spearheaded the measure.

Said Weinstein, “The fact this involves sex really doesn’t make it that exotic. It’s a business, and it affects health.”

Weinstein acknowledges that passing the measure was the easy part. Enforcing the rule will be an entirely different matter.

LA County’s Health Department will be responsible for monitoring sexual activity in the same way they have to patrol restaurants and nail salons. Says Weinstein, “You will apply for a permit, you fill the paperwork. And then there are spot inspections. The same if you are a food handler, or a dog groomer or a barber. Someone is going to come around every once and a while and see if you are protecting people’s health.”
