Heard an ad on the radio for a Prime Time Investigates on the sex industry tomorrow night.
The hook they are going with is that it is funding organised crime in Europe and is based on the exploitation of foreign migrants.

Thanks for the heads up Dob,i saw a statistic the other day,where the sex industry is now only second to drugs,in terms of earnings by criminals.
Just bumping this.
9.30 RTE 1
I never watch said "documentary" about sex and prostitution as im pissed off how many lies they say there and how distorted they show the things ... they are far far away from reality but again mass media confirm that they are just a tool to control people minds and put in them head what some interested third part want people to see and believe
You said it. It's all rubbish really, it's just a ploy for more viewers. Twisting the truth and facts to accomplish that is something the media does quite often, and it's not just the topic of sex work here. I won't watch it myself either for that very reason, I'll just end up annoyed as a result of it.
Come to think of it, I don't really watch or read much mainstream mass media at all for that reason. I actually don't even have a TV in my apartment. :p
Preview on the news
20 gangs moving over 100 women around Ireland, video of woman moving out of apartments
Romanian woman who was sold into a gang speaks, (face not hidden)
Large Garda file with the DPP with many people to be charged under human trafficking laws
I guess at least the Guards can't say that the general public have not ben forewarned with this documentary giving the low down to the who's, why's and how's. Even if they are exaggerated and in some cases likely porkies.
I will be watching it, but not because I'm expecting this to be at all honesty or representative, but because I like to know what the general public are being fed, so I can try to understand where they are coming from when they are telling me I know nothing and I've got it all wrong. I believe knowledge is power and that applies to misconceptions and deliberate attempts to mislead.
Apologies for bursting the bubble but we are in fact mostly normal guys and sadly for the media the vast majority of Ladies working are here of their own free will and happy at their job ,I know that's not what you want to hear and it will be in contrast to the programme you are watching/have just watched.
For the ladies that are not here of their free will we in no way condone that and most of us here would report such information to the Garda.
The good news is their is a new law coming in which will make the scene go underground so the ladies won't be safe anymore,Ohh wait that's not good is it?
Anyway you are all welcome and guys when the wife/Gf has stopped looking make that call ;)
Try and look for verified pictures and a lady with good reviews,but We are here to help also should you need assistance.
Not me though,I will most likely be no help,that's how I roll ;)
Well said buddy :)
Is it tonight? What time?
More important, is this channel up north as well? :D
Have music on and really, I'm too lazy to look for RTE..
Thanks a mill x

You may need an Ip blocker to watch,I am not sure.
Shouldn’t you actually watch the programme before you make such a grandstanding op?
It gives the impression of you with your fingers in your ears shouting la la la. I can’t hear you.
Perhaps it will be completely biased and perhaps some valid points may be raised but posters here often complain about the general perception of people that clients are dirty sleazy old men, it’s a lie sold to people by the church and the ngo s with vested interests et. but most posts about this upcoming programme so far have been very judgemental and closed minded.
"We live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups. I ask, in my writing, 'What is real?' Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms."
