If the Marriott Hotel chain keeps banning everything, they may as well shut their doors.  LOL!

I’m guessing that their cut from porn is a lot bigger than their cut from cigarette machines in the lobby.

I remember seeing a figure once, IIRC, beaucoup dinero.

Lord knows how many children have been permanantly affected by all that second-hand porn, only 15 clicks of the remote and a credit card away. . . .

Concerned Women for America (CWA)

I so love this organization..how do you join..I imagine for starters you must be a woman..that is a given..then be an American..ok..two down..what if an American woman bounces into their offices full of life and happiness and says.."I would love to join the CWA"..would she not be considered "concerned" enough to join???

Concerned Women for America (CWA) says that if the Marriott hotels care so much about their customers, as indicated in their recent decision to ban smoking from hotel rooms, they should stop offering hard-core porn in their hotel rooms.

Porn causes lung cancer? Who knew.

[sandbar]

Lots of married couples like porn, why do they assume it's only for men?

Oh wait, this the lesbian feminazi group, right?

[HiTech RedNeck]

As a corporation, Marriott certainly has certain legal rights to choose among legal things. That doesn't mean these things are correct or good in themselves; critics also have a legal right to speak their minds to anyone who will listen. I'd much sooner see all smoking rooms in Marriott than for Marriott to keep on vending porn.

There's such a thing as dependency on porn?

Yeah, to hell with the souls of our customers, harmed relationships, the dehumanization of women, destroyed marriages, not to mention support for the degradation of those women engaged in the production of porn.

Certainly, it's all about the money. But Marriott can get away with this policy because their policy generally reflects societal indifference toward porn. The neglect of the soul is typically modern.

You can take away my porn when you pry it from my hot, sticky fingers . . .

(eww)

[Lazamataz]

I'm tired of all the CWA porn titles that are out there:

• Concerned Women for America Do Dallas (1979)
• Deep CWA (1984)
• Concerned Women For America's Anal Workout II (1992)

[Brit_Guy]

People pay a premium for porn on the hotel TVs? Sureley, the just use the room broadband connection and get their cheap two bit kicks from the internet freebies?

Ooops, better not let CWA in on that - they'll be wanting the room web access off next - or filtered chinese style...

Thought police.

[BaBaStooey]

This just gets me wondering if Paris Hilton's video was available through the TVs at the Hilton Hotel chain.

I don't stay at Hilton Hotels, too pricey for me...but then again, so is Paris Hilton.

I agree with that. I have never gotten porn in a hotel (yes I have seen it before though, who hasn't). I don't think it should be banned. Not everyone in the U.S. is conservative or religious and might not consider porn a sin or a bad thing.

[Always Right]

The correct policy for hotels should be to block porn to any room that minors are checked in to.

[Sensei Ern]

There was a major hotel chain that James DObson told about that no longer has porn on its TVs. ANyone know what chain that was?

[MineralMan]

Not seen in the Press Release:

Jane LaRue, CWA's Chief Counsel, continued, "To see the depth of the problem, I and my assistant checked into a Marriot and viewed every available porn film on the room's television set. At the end of this viewing, we were so exhausted we had to sleep for 10 hours. This porn in hotel rooms must end!"

Maybe if they banned CBS. NBC and ABC, they'd offend less real Americans.
