Pornography
Once we decide
what constitutes pornography, what activities related to it are
most effectively screened? Some institutions may screen out
companies who advertise in pornographic publications. This is
entirely meritorious, even exemplary. However, we have decided
to define our pornography screens as companies that produce,
print, or distribute pornography.
We realize that our distinction
regarding a company’s active production and distribution of pornography
will not be accepted by all. Our decision in this regards the credibility of the information we provide.
