Porn film director joins with church officials to make public service announcement
Monday March 15, 2004

LOS ANGELES (AP) Just because he makes his living directing pornographic films doesn't mean James DiGiorgio wants children watching them.

That's why the veteran director took a recent day off from filming his usual adult fare to make a public service announcement for a Christian anti-pornography group. Its message: Parents, keep your adult videos and magazines out of the hands of your children.

``This stuff is not for kids, like liquor and cigarettes are not for kids. We have to take extraordinary steps to protect them from it, said DiGiorgio, himself the father of two children.Still, the irony of making a film starring children's puppets instead of porn stars wasn't lost on him.

``It's kind of like you stepped into an alternate reality,'' he said.

Making the film for XXXchurch.com, he said, has led some members of the porn industry to denounce him as a turncoat.
