Chatsworth, CA – AVN® Media Network, Inc., the largest and most respected trade journal for the adult entertainment industry, announced plans to consolidate four of their six print publications into one monthly trade magazine.
“We are simply acting responsibly in a tumultuous market. This move reflects a trend of consolidation in the adult entertainment market itself, and allows us at the same time to return to our roots,” explains Darren Roberts, AVN’s CEO.
Paul Fishbein, AVN’s President, explains, “Magazine publishers in every business segment know that they must undergo strategic modifications, mainly consolidation, in order to remain competitive, and in many cases, to remain in business. Because AVN is in the print business and directly related to the adult industry, consolidation is a move for which we have been anticipating and planning for several months.”
“Retailers, distributors, video producers, webmasters, sex toy manufacturers, lingerie designers, and other adult industry professionals can still rely on AVN to be the definitive trade publication for this diverse and robust industry,” continues Mr. Roberts. “However, today’s demand to deliver value to the advertiser is greater than ever before, and AVN is in the unique position of being able to leverage its 27 year-old brand in order to significantly expand the reach of its products and services.
Lets see here, what’s the biggest crap line in this article. “largest and most respected”(respected by whom?), “return to out roots”(does that mean Gene Ross is coming back, or Jim Holliday articles from beyond the grave). “directly related to the adult industry”(funded by whatever dopes still buy space). “diverse and robust industry”(huh?). “unique…leverage…expand reach” (expand? like Herbie Dingle’s stomach). God, this reminds me of Bud Selig’s testimony before Congress a few years ago, after listening to it I wasnt even sure if Bud Selig giving his name was the only true and factual statement he made in his appearance.
