Producers Bank on DVD Sales for Hounddog Flop     12/19/2008
By Donna Miller

Thanks to your efforts, few theaters were willing to show Hounddog, the controversial movie starring Dakota Fanning which features a child rape scene. But Amazon.com is not as reluctant. The website is taking pre-orders for the DVD, which is scheduled for general release on February 9, 2009.

Since the movie was filmed in North Carolina, Concerned Women for America (CWA) of North Carolina has led the campaign called "No More Child Porn" to educate citizens regarding the movie attempt to mainstream child pornography. CWA also requested that U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey launch an investigation into the movie's possible violation of child pornography laws.

Please contact Amazon.com's management to respectfully ask that they not carry this movie which mainstreams child pornography.

Amazon.com's contact information is:

Jeffrey P. Bezos, President
1200 12th Ave. South, Ste. 1200
Seattle, WA 98144-2734
Phone: 206-266-1000
