Porn Valley- I was kind of surprised to read some of the AVN stories on www.lukeisback.com in recent weeks. Particularly the one about Lynn Lemay allegedly suing the company for libel. I think if anyone would have known the details of that one it would have been me since Lemay's escapades were standard fodder for the Gene Duz Gossip column. On another note, I have not seen word one written about Lara Roxx's alleged TT Boy lawsuit [reported on www.lukeisback.com] in the Canadian Press.
But today the following is posted on www.lukeisback.com under the heading "AVN Retraction": "I've carelessly tossed around statements on this site that AVN had several lawsuits against it, and that some have been similar in content to Jennifer Rosenblatt's. http://adultfyi.com/read.aspx?ID=6068
According to the information I now have, AVN has never been sued (except for a minor case ten years ago from someone who was receiving the magazine and didn't want it).
Lynn LeMay told me in 1996 that she won a settlement from AVN regarding libel but when I check that claim out, I can find no substantiation.
Renee Johnson and Bryn Pryor (Mark Logan) had some screaming argument about six years ago. Though a harassment lawsuit may have been threatened by Renee, the matter was settled in-house. Bryn went to anger management classes and Renee got a car and a cushy job running AVN's tradeshows.
Juliet Lowry was the head of the AVN internet division. She's now out on her own. She's been heard making similar complaints to Jenn's about AVN but she remains friendly with Paul Fishbein.
I expect AVN will have to make a statement about Jennifer's lawsuit. Jenn and AVN publisher Paul Fishbein were platonic friends for years.
I also posted last week that Paul Fishbein was on a rampage to destroy the career of Jenn's husband Darren Blatt. According to another source, however, Paul does not even know what Darren does for a living, let alone has he tried to hurt Darren's business.
Gene adds: In his litany of AVN sleaze, what Lukeisback forgot to include was another sexual harassment incident involving the receptionist at the time and a male employee who subsequently left the company.
