pornography wasn't sex but fantasies of an impossibly hospitable world

LA Weekly seems to do a lot of articles on porn.

Except when it comes to 35mm screenings of XXX features.
With the exception of a passing mention of the Marilyn Chambers double feature at The Beverly, I don't think they've covered any of the XXX Grindhouse nights. Not even when I ran WANDA WHIPS WALL STREET and had Veronica Hart there for a Q & A.

^ Assuming you contacted them, what did they say? Just wondering if they gave any reason, or if they sort of brushed it off.

I don't do press type stuff so I'm not sure what, if anything, L.A. Weekly gave as their rationalization for ignoring these shows (or, well, maybe not ignoring but just not covering).
L.A. Weekly is a bit of a hipster loving publication so they gravitate towards screenings and films which they deem as kool[sic], 'edgy,' 'indie,' or 'alt.'
Though they tend to give decent coverage to regular (as in non-XXX) repertory screenings around town, but when it comes to exploitation events, they have a decided preference towards those screenings that revel is film-mocking and other ironic nonsense and 'so-bad'it's-good' type crap.

No such plans at the moment.
If I end up doing anything, I'll definitely post about it here.
