Whats up at Penthouse?
 
NEW YORK - Robert Guccione, the founder of Penthouse Magazine, has sued the Penthouse Media Group and its officers in New York County Court, claiming they drove his porn empire into bankruptcy, shoveled money into their own pockets while doing so, and refuse to pay him severance money they owe him, according to a court reporting newswire.

Guccione claims that rather than reorganize his financially troubled General Media International, he allowed the defendants to take it over and reorganize, on the promise they would let him keep his townhouse, pay him $1 million a year for 25 years and pay him $15 million if they failed to perform, according to the report.

The newswire further reports that Guccione alleged that the defendants snookered him, refused to pay up once they had control of the new company and owe him $7.5 million plus legal fees.

The 37-page complaint describes the considerable debts Guccione and his companies had run up before he ceded control of his ?empire,? including ?a $50 million art loan that was in default,? and his townhouse, also in default.

A Penthouse Media Group official was not available for comment at press time.

Sounds like a zero-trust situation.

I dunno about you folks, but I could take Penthouse upto date and into the future...

The drama this brand has endured is unbearable.

Truly it is an amazing story, incredibly tragic.

The Brand has delivered some of the most stunning beauty in the history of adult.
Yet...


This kinda crap that makes people uncertain of its future.

They should be making tons of cash.

Who knows.
Ibill has thrown the Penthouse name around like toilet paper in the past over the years but from what I understand IBILL pushed Penthouse like it was there own when it is supposedly quite the contrary.

Which I think also hurts the Penthouse Brand on the internet.
I got no idea who's what with the whole saga.

Fucken very wicked.
