Los Angeles, July 23, 2005 — This morning in a conversation with Steve Banan, Ron Jeremy’s PR man, he alluded to the fact that early negotiations are still on going with ABC Network for a Ron Jeremy Reality Show. He said in a conversation he had with ABC executives on Friday morning, they were interested in having several ABC reality show producers take a look at the project just as soon as they gets back in two weeks.

Steve said, he mentioned to ABC executives, their Saturday evening primetime 9:00 or 10:00 slot definitely needs something. In his opinion, a summer replacement, Ron Jeremy Reality Show in either time slot would be the bomb. Viewers would tune in while they were home getting ready to go out and party.

Steve Banan a thirty-year veteran of the PR game, known, as the man that brought New York’s famed Plato’s Retreat to prominence, is not sitting on his laurels. He told me starting on Monday he will be at the Gower Studios in Hollywood discussing a Ron Jeremy Reality based show with several producers that have already contacted him after reading the ABC story from Xbiz The Industry Source. Steve told me, there is no bidding war going on here, even though ABC has told us not to say yes to any other producer before they had the first opportunity. Steve Banan told me, we are just talking and not signing with anyone at this time.

Steve Banan has kept Ron Jeremy apprized [sic] of every move he has made since ABC Network contacted him. Ron Jeremy has stated many times, there are none better then Steve Banan, when it comes to hands on publicity and negotiations. Ron Jeremy has complete trust and admiration for his good friend and business associate Steve Banan. He has given him the green light to pursue all negotiations for a Ron Jeremy Reality Base Show deal, pursuant to the finalization and signing by Ron Jeremy himself.
