Your Honor, this headline is misleading. The article does not indicate my client, Mr. Mickey Mouse, had any involvement in this event whatsoever.

PARIS (AFP) - The Walt Disney Company has lodged a furious complaint over a saucy joke video doing the rounds on the Internet, shot by staff at Disneyland Paris in the guise of well-known cartoon characters.
In the film Mickey Mouse's trusty companion, Pluto, is shown spanking the chipmunks Chip and Dale, before joining Minnie Mouse and the Snowman for a cheeky, simulated "menage-a-trois".
Calling the naughty flick "unacceptable" and "unforgivable", Eurodisney's management on Wednesday promised to find and punish those responsible for the film, shot illicitly on the grounds of the giant theme park outside the French capital.
A union official said the pledge to crack down on the filmmakers -- two of whom appear bare-faced in the video -- was sparked by an angry protest from the US parent company, which owns 40 percent of Eurodisney.
Released online, the video was made available on Dailymotion and in the adult section of the Youtube video exchange.
Paris Disney sounds like much more of a "Magic Kingdom" than Orlando or Anaheim. It's got those two beat. :)
And now the article is moved to UFO section only? Why is Free Republic protecting Disney from negative press?
Your Honor, this headline is misleading. The article does not indicate my client, Mr. Mickey Mouse, had any involvement in this event whatsoever.
Oops. After viewing the evidence, I retract my defense of Mr. Mouse.
The Disney animators made an underground Mickey Mourse "pr0n" cartoon in the 30s (? I'm guessing from it's being in B&W and the style of drawing). A print actually made it to the Brattle Theater in Harvard Square where I saw it in the 70s. It was pretty mild though...mostly it lampooned the Mouse Factory.
I would pay good money to see this one! But then, I'm a Warners fan. LONG LIVE BUGS BUNNY!
Calls to mind the old joke (not sure I can really repeat it here) about Mickey appearing in divorce court against Minnie.
The judge says, "You say you want to divorce your wife because she is insane?"
Mickey: "No, I said I want to divorce her because she's f...ing Goofy!"
I remeber seeing some 30s porn animation years ago. Actually, it was quite humorous--not something I would want a kid to see though. Bety Boop herself was supposed to be a hooker. There was one where the character was supposed to be gay. They had this foppish guy swishing around and all the flowers were swishing around--it was hilarious (risque but not actually porn--but you got the message).
Lots of cartoon characters (Dagwood and Blondie, Mutt & Jeff, etc.) were featured years ago in cheap porn knock-offs called "Tijuana Bibles". You can see several examples if you google the term.
I mean, that's what I've been told.
Selective Outrage.
