Flynt offers Starr job as porno aide


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - If independent counsel Kenneth Starr ever 
wants a new job after investigating President Clinton, Hustler 
magazine publisher Larry Flynt has just the position for him -- 
adviser on pornography. 

"After a reading of the Starr report I am impressed by the salacious 
and voyeuristic nature of your work," Flynt wrote to Starr 
Wednesday offering him a job with his group that publishes 
magazines specializing in sexual subjects. [PARA]"The quality and 
quantity of material you have assembled in the Starr report contains 
more pornographic references than those provided by Hustler Online 
services this month," his letter said. [PARA]Flynt, who in the past 
has fought legal battles over pornography and freedom of speech, went 
on to praise Starr's report on Clinton that graphically describes the 
president's affair with his former White House intern Monica Lewinsky. 

"I congratulate you for having opened the doors of libraries and 
schools to pornographic liter!", the publisher wrote. "Those of us 
at Hustler need your assistance in extending the parameters of 
pornography to a wider community of adults. You have opened a new 
era in promoting explicit sexual materials." 

By including such explicit references in his report to Congress that 
could form the basis for impeachment proceedings against Clinton, 
Flynt said Starr has helped alter community standards in accepting 
pornography. 

In his letter, Flynt compared the Starr report with his own Hustler 
Online Magazine for its content. This month's magazine, for example, 
had 44 graphic references to genitalia, while the Starr report had 
50, Flynt wrote.
