Thus the click-bait headline. "Electronic-Detecting Dog" would get a pitiable number of clicks in comparison. In a sense, the companies with ads on the story page benefited from porn, or at least the idea of it. After all, the internet is for porn.

I did my every five minutes search for the word "porn" in the forum software and was very disappointed once I got here.

I was more upset he was stealing RatBastard's shtick in playing that role.

Nope.  Just the shoe police.

Fox News? Harris Faulkner sues Hasbro for $5 million over alleged theft of persona and likeness






that's crazy...Her lawyers are insane, but laughing all the way to the bank
as there is absoulutely no way that has any merit

I do love this line
Because when you?re shopping for the perfect toy for that hard-to-please child, ?Does it bear a resemblance to a daytime Fox News co-host?? is the first question that pops into your head.

I'm not clear why they named the toy the same name as her. She arguably has something there. The "resemblance" part is total wtf.
