In one day, both Arlen Specter and Jay Leno talked about Mitt Romney and porn. But Romney has sat on the board of the Marriott hotel chain, a company that has raked in huge profits from in-room PPV viewing of adult titles.
“Just as Mitt Romney is about to run,” Cenk points out, he quits the board and Marriott announces a plan to pull porn titles — within five years — and donates $1.5 million to Romney’s super PAC. (Romney’s legal first name “Willard” is actually in honor of the chain’s founder, a family friend.)
Richard Eskow and Zaid Jilani weigh in on Romney’s hypocrisy and whether he should return the Martiott money.
