Real Estate Tycoon Exposed as ‘Boogeyman of Porn’ (Bill Handel’s brother)
DailyBeast ^ | 11/26/22 | William Bredderman

Posted on 03/12/2023 5:43:52 AM PDT by Callahan

Los Angeles-area real estate magnate Mark Handel was once able to get state legislation specially drafted to suit his developments, persuade the city council to give his projects an interest-free six-figure loan, and to cultivate ties with men who would later represent the region in the House of Representatives and U.S. Senate.

But according to materials from a forthcoming documentary—which The Daily Beast corroborated through public records research and conversations with San Fernando Valley insiders—Handel, now facing federal fraud and money-laundering charges, maintained a parallel career as one of the most notorious and misogynistic figures in hardcore porn: Khan Tusion.

… Khan Tusion’s films—which have titles like Rough Sex and Meat Holes—are infamous for their scenes of female performers getting beaten, spat upon, stepped on, and even choked into unconsciousness. Taglines referred to the women he worked with as “jizzmops” and “the nastiest whores who love to be treated like worthless pieces of meat.”

It can’t be a good thing for a movie to have the title “Meat Hole”, it can only go downhill from there.

He had (has?) a syndicated radio talk show, “Handel on the Law.” It was kind of like Dr. Laura for legal issues instead of relationships. People would call in to say they received an eviction notice and ask how they should respond to it, and he’d call them an idiot for not paying their rent...

I liked him when he was on. KDKA had him on Sunday afternoons. It was a different type of show and very fun to listen to.

Yes, his shtick was funny for about 10 minutes, then he became quite obnoxious.

KFI LA morning drive time host, one of the higher rated radio shows in Los Angeles. Also has syndicated show where he gives legal advice. Used to guest host for Rush Limbaugh. They aired his live show in place of Limbaugh on 9/11 because Rush was off that day. His brother is a world class scum bag. Supposedly maintains his distance.

“Handel on the Law.”

Is he the legal radio host who, when people call in with their legal questions, he responds based upon California law? When it comes to evictions, he thinks all states are like California and landlords through-out the nation have no legal rights whatsoever. As to debt owed, he thinks creditors have no rights and there is always a law which allows a debtor to default on their debt without any repercussions. Maybe I’m thinking about another show, but the Handel name sounds familiar.

They are really jumping to a conclusion with that statement, in my opinion. I don't think anyone subjects themselves to that kind of treatment because they love it, but because they have been conditioned to accept it. They have little self-worth in their own eyes.

Mark Handel is just pure evil, and those who work for the Daily Beast are not much better. The girls most likely are victims, and the Daily Beast is also complicit in that victimization of these women, with their callous representation of them.

Bill Hnadell didn’t use to guest host for Rush Limbaugh, there is a claim that he did twice but I would like to see the information on that.

Handel was staying on the air on 9/11 when Rush’s show was made impossible.

Bill comes on at 07:00 Pacific on KFI in LA. Hard to believe he’ll address this but it is clearly the ‘elephant in the room.’

Handel was born in Brazil. His father Leo was from Yugoslavia, and his mother Nechama was a Polish Jew who grew up in Brazil. Handel’s paternal grandparents were killed in the Holocaust.[3] The Handel family emigrated to the U.S. when Bill was five.[3]

So Bill has been part of the cover-up during all these decades of feminism and that ‘she said’ movement which the left sort of dropped after realizing they were taking down so many of the bosses and icons of the left.

Yes, one kinda thinks that Handel might have been the broadcasting equivalent of the “Diaster QB”. I.E. a clause in his contract that says “In case of a major terrorist attack on the US, Rush Limbaugh gets to go be somewhere else except where terrorists might expect him to be found, and you take his place on the air.

This is how wiki describes it.

“On September 11, 2001, Handel was on air live when the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center took place. Most of the Clear Channel FM music stations in Los Angeles switched over to a live feed of Handel’s show as news reports and further attacks unfolded. At that time, Rush Limbaugh’s show normally would follow The Bill Handel Show on KFI. Not only was Limbaugh on a plane heading to a golf tournament that day, but telecommunications systems were also devastated in New York, where his show was based at that time. Handel continued to broadcast for another three hours, taking the place of The Rush Limbaugh Show on most stations in the country (as well as the taped broadcast for Armed Forces Radio overseas).”

Uh, kinda begs the question. Who were the senators and congressmen Handel has “influence” with?
