Pornography also frequently involves violence against the actresses or models. Although some women enter the pornography industry voluntarily, many are forced or tricked into it. Linda Boreman Marciano, alias Linda Lovelace, the star of Deep Throat, has written an autobiography, Ordeal, in the hope of "purg(ing) forever the idea that she had become 'Linda Lovelace" voluntarily." (Ms., May 1980, p.73) She describes her entrapment into prostitution, repeated beatings and raping: "guns being put to her head, turning tricks while being watched through a peephole to make sure she couldn't escape, and having a garden hose jammed...

Coming just after M*A*S*H, which was No. 2 in the ratings last week, Flo has everything going for it but a knock down script. The best line is a leftover from Alice, "Kiss mah grits!"

...after dinner when the Spa provided a nightclub act which THEY were convinced was chosen specifically to irritate the hell out of them. Something was wrong with every show and they would start talking loudly while the act was on stage, only to be countered by noisy, wet "sssh"ing. Before long the comedian ("He's talking down to us." "Ssshhh") or the duo ("Her voice is too loud" "Sssshh") couldn't be heard at all. And that's when they started walking out. ("You can't hear these people at all.") By the end of the show, only four...
