Whether you love or hate porn, Larry Flynt’s impact on the adult entertainment industry and the legal questions surrounding porn were absolutely massive. Flynt championed himself as a warrior for free speech, and was involved in several battles.
He famously even duked it out all the way to the Supreme Court. His life was chronicled in the legendary movie “The People vs. Larry Flynt.”
Now, at the age of 78, Flynt’s life has come to an end. Again, no matter what you think of the man, he had a huge impact on the industry he was in.
“Hustler” is one of the most famous adult publications on the planet.
What an absolutely wild life for Mr. Flynt. I guess when we look back at the history books, there’s no doubt he secured his place.
