Really? Hmmm. I've seen a lot of reportage of how the x-rated industry in
QLD is booming - lots of films being shot on the Gold Coast, lots of
websites - and nothing about illegality.

I could be wrong, of course. Or perhaps it's legal to shoot the film stock
outside the ACT, but only to edit/produce/sell the finished product from
there.

Brothers and sisters, I have a dream. Journalism is a ticket to ride, to
travel deep into the dark heart of the pictures you see on your TV and
feeds. And I'm going to take you on a ride with me. A short weird ride into
the heart of darkness.
