The case was ultimately decided by the United States Supreme Court (9-0) in Flynt's favor. Falwell sued Flynt, alleging libel and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

In a 1983 parody of an advertisement for #pr#Campari#pr#, Hustler described the then-prominent fundamentalist Protestant minister Jerry Falwell having a drunken, incestuous encounter with his mother in an outhouse. In an interview, Flynt explained, "I felt that they should be informed with what's going on in the rest of the world. This practice began at some point between 19, and it continues as of 2010. In 2003, Flynt ran unsuccessfully for the office of Governor of California during that state's recall election.Įvery month Hustler is mailed, uninvited and for free, to the office of each member of the United States Congress. During the controversy surrounding Bill Clinton's impeachment, Flynt publicly announced his sympathy for Clinton, and offered cash rewards to anyone with information regarding sexual impropriety on the part of the president's critics. Throughout the 1980s, Flynt used his magazine as a podium with which to launch vitriolic, obscenity-laden attacks on the Reagan Administration and the Religious Right, and even published a short-lived political magazine called Rebel. Flynt and Hustler are also noted for having a more populist and working-class outlook than the more upscale-oriented Playboy and Penthouse. Hustler has long had a left-wing editorial policy on economics, foreign policy, and social issues. Hustler also features amateurs in the Beaver Hunt section of the magazine. In keeping with Hustler's focus on the steamier and less romantic aspects of sexuality, Honey Hooker, unlike Fanny and Wanda, was explicitly portrayed as being a prostitute. This feature was designed to compete against Playboy's Little Annie Fanny and Penthouse's Wicked Wanda. She might be in American colonial times one month or in a Super Bowl locker room the next. In each installment, Honey would have graphic sexual encounters with any male (or female) she ran across. In the 1970s, Hustler ran a comic strip feature entitled "Honey Hooker". An illustration showing a photograph of the criticized person's head emerging from the anus of a cartoon donkey is shown alongside the article. Of particular infamy are Hustler's cartoons, which have often featured blatantly violent and misogynistic themes.Īnother feature of Hustler is a column called "Asshole of the Month." In every monthly issue of the magazine, some public figure is selected for severe criticism as that month's asshole. The chain's flagship store is on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood. Larry Flynt Publications (LFP) also owns the Hustler Casino in Gardena, California, the Hustler Club chain of bars and clubs, and Hustler store chain that sells adult-oriented videos, clothing, magazines and sex toys. Today, Hustler is still considered more explicit (and more self-consciously lowbrow) than such well known competitors as #pu#Playboy#pu# and #pu#Penthouse#pu#. The magazine was one of the first major men's magazines in the United States to break the taboo and depict explicit photography. The magazine grew from a shaky start to a peak circulation of around 3 million (current circulation is below 500,000).
