AVN Online Associate Editor Frank Meyer (a.k.a. Frank Majors) has been tapped by Variety as a blogger. Meyer will author a daily Web-log called "The Porning Report" that will discuss sex in the media and porn's infiltration into the mainstream. "The Porning Report" will run on Variety.com beginning this afternoon and will be updated every weekday morning.
"This is an amazing opportunity," Meyer told AVN.com. "The column is about the mainstreaming of porn, and there is no better example of that topic than the very fact that Variety asked me to spearhead this."
Meyer is a published author whose debut book, On the Road With the Ramones, was released worldwide by Sanctuary Music Group’s Publishing Division, Sanctuary Publishing. On the Road with the Ramones was co-written by Meyer with Ramones tour manager Monte A. Melnick and tells the story of the seminal New York punk band’s 22-year career on the road. An oral history with a narrative, Meyer and Melnick interviewed the band members of the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famers, their friends and family and members of Blondie, Talking Heads, New York Dolls and many others for this full color 302-page tome.
On the Road with the Ramones can be purchased at bookstore near you or www.amazon.com.
Meyer was also the singer/guitarist in the seminal punk band The Streetwalkin’ Cheetahs, who issued eight albums, appeared on 55 other releases and toured the world extensively before he left the group to concentrate on writing full time. Meyer currently plays in the group Sweet Justice, whose debut album will be released through Real O Mind this spring.
