Flynt Says Scandal Bribe Yielding Tips

[sabra]

Hustler magazine publisher Larry Flynt told Yeas & Nays on Saturday that the newspaper ad he took out last week offering a million-dollar bounty for evidence of illicit sexual activity with lawmakers has yielded about 200 tips so far. He said he’ll let them continue to trickle in over the next two weeks or so before his team begins to follow up on them. “We’ll be lucky if we get 2 to 4 percent” hard leads that could yield a payout, he said.

Flynt, bedecked in a monogrammed silk shirt, a diamond bracelet and multiple rings, said he fully expects to snare a big fish or two from the effort. When asked why he decided to go ahead with this now, he reminded us that he also did this for the first time way back in 1976 and likes to do so regularly to expose the hypocrisy of high-ranking officials (he did it again during President Clinton’s impeachment in 1998). With an election coming up, Flynt thought the timing was right.

“We do the same thing the mainstream media does,” he said, adding that his efforts annoy mainstream reporters because he upstages them.

As far as taking out another ad, he implied that he got enough of a bounce off the one that it wouldn’t be necessary.

“You’d be wasting money,” he said.
