July 24th, 1997. Geraldo Rivera on his namesake talk show talks internet porn with Communications Director of Enough is Enough Donna Rice Hughes. We see how easy it is to navigate pornographic websites in an industry that at this time will reach a billion dollars a year.
“I think it’s important that we understand the technology is neutral. It can be used negatively…or in a positive way, and what we’re finding on the internet is there are a lot of abuses and exploitations.”
We hear from a woman and her daughter Summer, who as a minor was lured across the country into a cult before moving on to who is responsible for blocking this content. Ms Hughes closes out the segment with some details on the goals of her organization Enough is Enough.
In 2025 revenue of the U.S.A.’s online porn industry is 13 billion dollars.
This day, Geraldo’s television history.
