It's usually news when the mainstream media decides to take on porn; most often, it's not so good.
Starting tonight, though, CNBC, the cable business network, is offering up a documentary program that actually might be promising, even quite progressive.
Titled Porn: Business of Pleasure, the special is designed to take what they call "an inside look" at how the industry is surviving (or not surviving) the economic pitfalls of late, and it interviews both performers (such as Jesse Jane), producers, and executives alike.
The website promoting the special includes a slideshow featuring highlights of the program, which will begin airing on CNBC starting at 9 PM EDT, with repeat broadcasts at 10 PM and 1 AM EDT.
They also promise frequent rebroadcasts in the future, so check your local listings, as the saying goes.
Update (7/19/09): Well...the good folks at Hulu have done us a great favor and posted a clip of the documentary in its entirity and generally commercial free...and they have also freely allowed folk to embed it to their sites/blogs. So, for those not having cable or not able to catch the doc, here it is for you.

How Does An Ageless Sex Goddess Celebrate Her 50th Birthday??
If you happen to be Nina Hartley, you....
1) reflect on your impact on the world at large. (Which would be, on the subject of sex and pleasure and women's sexuality, and bringing progressive values into the hardcore erotic medium, pretty much HUGE.
2) You have lots and lots of sex. (Ahhh....duh.)
3) You debut at the Huffington Post with a killer essay depicting a fictional brunch with another legend and world changer who has had her own share of ups and downs....and has managed to persevere through it all with strength.
What's that you say....Barbie's a doll, and she can't speak??? Well. let's pretend that she can, and that she and Nina decide to have a gettogether where they shoot the breeze about their lives.
Fortunately, Nina can speak, and type, and write. Based on the results, pretty damn well, too.
Show her your love by going there and reading..and then drop her some birthday wishes and some thanks for...well, just being, talking, and doing the sexy for so long.
