The Free Speech Coalition, the trade organization of the adult entertainment industry, has announced that Tim Valenti, Co-Founder, President and CEO of NakedSword.com, has been appointed to join the 2006 FSC Board of Directors. His appointment was made by the Board to fill a vacancy following the latest round of elections.
“Mr. Valenti is a well-known and respected member of the adult entertainment industry,” said Ms. Freridge. “He brings years of executive experience to the table, as well as a proven track record as an advocate for free speech, sound business practices, and all the other positive qualities that we value at FSC. He is a perfect fit.”
“As digital media becomes the dominant mode of consumption for adult material,” said Mr. Valenti, “regulators are increasingly focusing on the bogeyman of adult online distribution. As a 10-year veteran of the VOD market, I am eager to help the Free Speech Coalition address the possibilities of the medium."
The FSC has announced the Board officers for the 2006 calendar year. They are:
Chairperson: Jeffery J. Douglas, First Amendment Attorney
President: Bill Murphy, Fairvilla Megastores
Vice-President: Connor Young, YNOT Radio
Treasurer/CFO: Nick Boyias, Marina Pacific
Secretary: Mara Epstein, Jill Kelly Productions
FSC Board members serve in an oversight capacity, on various committees as active participants helping develop and initiate policy, and as officers helping facilitate an efficient and responsive association. They are not compensated for their FSC services.
