An excess of protestations

Why, newsweek, why?

Throwing out there a quick little piece on porn you have to pretend not to care and the reporter feels compelled to give himself some ironic distance from the output of those hard working auteurs over the hills in Porn Valley.

Well with this closing quote and snarky aside:
"This is a landmark achievement in our business," says Paul Fishbein, Adult Video News president. "The production values are incredible—if you took the sex scenes out, it [still] looks better than a lot of independent films that make it to the big screen." We'll have to take his word for it
I think the reporter (I'm talking to you Mr. Daniel McGinn) doth protest too much.

(and for the curious here is a NSFW link to the mentioned title Pirates)

(and judging from the cover art way too many surgically altered blondes for my taste, so I guess I'll have to say I'll have to take his word for it, also)

Agreed! Seconded!

There're only two valid excuses for silicone: post-masectomy reconstruction and transvestites, although the latter category is...uh...dubious! ;-)
