DAMON observes "The fawning mannerisms and faux-teen seductive speech pattern are finally gone as Sean Paul Lockhart tries to emerge from the bloodstained wreckage of his gay video career - with so much of what I believe is the REAL story about DeWayne in SD and his alleged role to be revealed in DAMON's new book, now being proofed as MOMENTUM for a NEW TRIAL for SPL inamorata the wrongfully convicted Harlow Cuadra increases"

Corbin Fisher uses bareback to drive individual downloads, BUT significantly has mostly gone back to condom usage for the main site.

We'll see if Sean Cody is testing out the same model, or will go back and forth between raw and not raw, or all raw like some of the others.

In this industry, you can count on the fact that If it drives up profits, these sites will go for it, morality, ethics and potential safety issues aside.

WEHO WHISPERS say that Corbin Fisher is not getting as sexy a crop of models as before because of partially going bareback.

INDUSTRY PREPARES TO MEET AND GREET AT JANUARY'S CYBERSOCKET AWARD SHOW; Ballot initiative requiring Los Angeles adult biz actors to wear condoms has qualified to go before city voters in June's presidential primary election 

See http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/45800698/ns/health-sexual_health/ for more on this major breaking news story

Despite facing fines, most major adult video companies continue to film without condoms.

DAMON says: "If it passes they'll just move production to another city. Not sure why L.A. would want to try and legislate this. Most str8 adult videos are condom free, and will probably remain that way".

Click the graphics below for direct links to the CYBERSOCKET AWARDS festivities next month.  The VIP entrance for the Cybersocket Awards with the Red Carpet is at The Factory on La Peer at 9. Entry is free for industry professionals.

Group rate for out of towners is $123.20 for the Cybersocket Awards at the Ramada WeHo. Booking information can be found at the Award Show graphic link.

It's great to see the Cybersocket Web Awards this time without DeWayne in SD's malicious interference with anyone's nomination by spreading disinformation and slander to Cybersocket CEO Morgan Sommers as he is documented as doing concerning my 2009 Cybersocket nomination for Best Blog, something the shameless gay on gay discriminator actually bragged about in print in case DeWayne tries to deny it.

THE BIGGEST GAY STORY OF DECEMBER 2011 THAT WASN'T
Tay Lautner Twitter firestorm results in hundreds of queries to DAMON "Is it real?"

This cover art doesn't really exist.  At least not as an accurate depiction of reality.  In other words, it's a cleverly done fake designed to get attention for its creator's hidden agenda.  And it probably also makes the resolutely self-proclaimed "straight" Taylor Lautner uncomfortable precisely because it SEEMS so believable, based on what we've seen and heard from Mr. Lautner (both in his jazz hands phase and his post-butched up phase).  So is Tay Tay really gay or not - faux People covers aside?  Only he - and his trainer and publicist - know for sure.  But in all fairness, Tay seems like a sweet guy and a reasonably good actor taking advantage of the choice - and decidedly str8, butch - film roles being offered him.  He's not known for being horrible to staff or disrespectful to his fans, and his heart seems to be in the right place. 

And did I mention that I have VERY good reason to believe he's actually contractually obligated to project a very family friendly, str8, and PG to PG-13 image for the next 5 years?  So let's cut Tay some slack, enjoy his considerable on screen assets, and see what happens in the next 5 years.  We can only HOPE that one day, such a cover story will be a reality - assuming that Mr. Lautner really is a member of Tribe Rainbow. 

For now, Tay Tay should be pleased as punch at the Twitter firestorm resulting in hundreds of breathless queries asking "is it real?" and "Is it true?" this phony PEOPLE cover provoked.  Maybe that was really the point of this charade.  Ya think?

FEDS PROBING PENNSYLVANIA PRISONER ABUSE

Concerns grow about incarcerated Cobra Video defendants HARLOW CUADRA and former companion Joe Kerekes as alleged "Fight Club" type "pattern of systemic abuse especially targeting younger gay prisoners" reported

Primary Source via this link:  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/12/01/pennsylvania-prisoner-abuse_n_1124104.html

"In the statement announcing its investigation into prison abuses, the Justice Department urged community members with information regarding other civil rights violations at Pennsylvania facilities to write to the agency at pennsylvaniaprisons.community@usdoj.gov...guards and administrators at a third Pennsylvania prison ran a clandestine "fight club" pitting inmate against inmate...permitted to go on with at times, severe injuries involved."

Adult Industry Powerhouses Manwin and Digital Playground file suit against ICANN and ICM Registry

Religious groups believe the .xxx TLD legitimizes obscenity, while the adult industry believes it could lead to censorship.

The suit focuses on the new xxx TLD, over what it alleges as being "extorting defensive registrations with ICANN's blessing".  Particular ire is directed at ICM's recently concluded "sunrise" period, during which porn companies, for about $200, could apply to own a .xxx address matching their trademark or .com domain.

Interestingly, it turns out that educational institutions also felt the same way, and had to reserve domains under their name so that no porn content could be put up on them.

KRUEZER AT NIGHT will keep a sharp eye on the status of the suit and give you regular updates as they occur.

RUSH TO JUDGMENT "HANG HIM HIGH" MASS MEDIA MEME ON SANDUSKY-PENN STATE SEX ABUSE CASE NEGATES REAL LEGAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTIONS UNDERLYING -- and REMINDS DAMON OF WHITEWASH DONE IN COBRA-KOCIS CASE IN HASTE TO GET A VERDICT

As DAMON can relate from personal experience, all too often people in this country latch on to a catch phrase endlessly repeated by the corporatist media and assume it contains the truthful essence of the situation.  No further evidence, corroboration, vetting process or critical thinking based on actual prevailing law (in this case, Pennsylvania law) required.   It's trial by Internet media long before any jury renders a verdict.  It's wrong, it's manifestly unfair, and it makes a mockery of the very Constitutional law - including the presumption of innocence - that is supposed to be routinely accorded to defendants in criminal cases.

Publicity hungry rightwing mouthpiece Sarah Palin yesterday called for Sandusky to be hung from the highest tree - as if she knows anything about the facts of the case except as filtered through the hysterical mainstream media.

The evidence does indeed seem overwhelming at first glance against Mr. Sandusky.  But too many people are acting as if he's guilty as charged and deserves the most extreme punishment - before he's had the trial by jury he's legally entitled to have.  Certainly the allegations against him are horrific, and there's no doubt severe punishment is warranted against him and those who may have enabled or covered up for him, IF and WHEN he or they are found guilty after a fair trial with ALL evidence and witnesses in open court.

But the truth is, at this point in time we simply don't know for sure who may be guilty of precisely what.  The media frenzy has obscured even the legal distinction between "rape" in the sense of forcible penetration and "unlawful relations" in the sense of a Monica being given.  Moral outrage aside, legally these are very important distinctions.

Yet as I know all too well, there are those eager to misrepresent personal speculation, fabrication or opinion as a verified fact to push their hidden agenda when it's nothing of the kind.

To keep the legal system of this country sacrosanct, we should remember what happened in the murder case of my late friend Bryan Kocis of Cobra Video, whom I believe was actually murdered by only one of the men convicted of the crime, and in which the actual instigator of the crime was allowed to walk free in exchange for his testimony that only allowed for a quick verdict and closure of the case that made so many quake with fear if their true involvement was ever revealed.

Will there ever be full, true justice for Bryan Kocis and the others directly responsible for his murder, beyond the convicted two?  I hope so.  I'm working to get Harlow Cuadra a new trial.  But in the meantime, let the legal process go forward without bias, hysteria or media convictions in the case of Sandusky and Penn State.  Let's not assume we know anything until the carefully vetted facts are presented in open court.  Until and unless Sandusky is convicted of any charge in this case, he must legally be considered innocent.  That's a bedrock principle all those who believe in the Constitution must support and defend.

BOOK OF SHADOWS: THE UNRESOLVED CORRIGAN CURSE HAUNTING THE GAY VIDEO INDUSTRY
Damon's thoughts on meeting and briefly conversing with Sean Paul Lockhart at the Judas Kiss DVD launch party at HERE, Los Angeles this past Thursday


I first spoke with Sean Lockhart in 2006 when he was bitterly fighting former mentor/boyfriend Bryan Kocis in Federal court over his right - or lack of same - to use the name "Brent Corrigan" that made him famous - and an owner of some La Jolla real estate to this day.  All that Lockhart told me in that interview has yet to be published for legal reasons relating to Harlow Cuadra's pending retrial.

This past Thursday I went anonymously to HERE Lounge here in Los Angeles to see how the intervening years had treated Sean on the occasion of the DVD launch party for the indie movie he does surprisingly well in, JUDAS KISS, although playing a twinky college guy is not what you'd call an acting stretch.  When introduced to him, Sean looked at me questioningly, with half formed doubts combined with shivers of desire clearly reflected in his deep set soulful brown eyes.  Even when his lightly freckled hand shook mine, a spark of energy passed between us resulting in a tremor in his voice.  Sean KNEW that he was in the presence of someone other than a typical fan, but I could see he couldn't quite place me.

Interestingly, Sean's voice and speech pattern was still the carefully practiced vocal style of someone at least 7 years younger, a characteristic retained from our first conversation 5 years ago.  Once a twink star always a twink star it seems, regardless of what the calendar - or mirror - may say.

I've now seen him in Judas Kiss, Chillerama / I Was A Teenage Werebear and In The Closet. He's right in there with your typical WB/CW actor, which is quite surprising for a gay video star. LESS attractive than Cain or Trey on Corbin Fisher though as his angular features and slightly receding hairline begin to show the first signs of aging.

"Mark Wilson is dead wrong about Damon Kruezer and Mark Wilson is dead wrong about me.  I doubt he is man enough to apologize. Cowards never do."

Now the BIG question is, why do Jason Pitt and Brent Corrigan continue to host their websites with this proven liar and unscrupulous businessman who admitted he tried to "datamine" my site and some email he thought was the real one by extending the hand of false friendship?  Is there a hidden business or personal relationship at work between Pitt, Corrigan, and Wilson?  Hmm...

Now on to as we report on the latest scandals, issues, and notable personalities in Gay Media - both on and off camera.

BE PROUD, BE HONEST, IT DOES GET BETTER...COME OUT!

The Pitt Stop's website finally launched and despite frantic hype by Jason Pitt, its content is boringly plain vanilla, Disneyfied and all too PG...not surprising when its developer STILL can't correctly spell "development"!

JASON PITT BANNED FROM 10/9 HUSTLABALL AFTER ORGANIZERS INFORMED OF LIES ABOUT DK AND ALLEGED DECEPTION WITH CLIENTS

Pitt pays the price for selling out to haters...and STILL doesn't have a website displaying his fast fading looks.  Looks like his once-stellar career - and fan interest - is reduced to occasional European runway shows.  His collapse is complete, and sadly, it didn't have to end this way.   The shining career I helped to launch just 2 years ago - as attested by Jason Pitt himself - is now in tatters.  Another example of why people should be grateful to those who gave them their start and never burn bridges with key players!

Jason Pitt in his own words 3/15/09

Shocked responses pour in about JASON PITT's continuing failure to have a viable working website, Pitt's inexplicable 180 degree turn about DK leading many to believe he was bought off,  and the alleged pressure tactic imposed on him by his webdesigner Mark Wilson to begin gender reassignment treatment in exchange for web and financial support.  Can this former A lister be pulled back from the brink of self-destruction and depression in time as DAMON offers him the warm embrace he seeks?

As homophobia declines, some heterosexual TWINKS are getting cozier and telling each other, "I love you, dude"...but shockingly, the percentage is over 50% in the UK/Europe but only 7% in the U.S.

MISSION: CHICAGO JUSTICE ABOUT TO DEPLOY; WHEELS UP WEDNESDAY FROM LAX

Says DAMON to the sinzfull one, "You are free to express your opinion or indulge in speculation as long as it is clear it is strictly your opinion or speculation.  You are NOT free to misrepresent 3rd hand gossip or fantastical speculation as verifiable fact because it is not"

Investigation while person of interest has Eire sojourn to include meetings with  former business and personal associates + application for TRO (Restraining Order) based on documented threats of bodily harm and publicly posted intimidation designed to have chilling effect on our civil and Title 18 rights

A former A lister who has directly and repeatedly financially benefited from DAMON's introductions has now inexplicably chosen to get involved in a matter none of his business or concern.  Shockingly, he's been making explicit, publicly posted, repeated and well documented threats of physical violence against DAMON including death threats to be carried out by his alleged underworld friends.  Law enforcement is on notice, watching closely and reviewing daily input from private security on perimeter patrol in Silverlake and at our family's Brooksby residence.  Amazingly, he's even being egged on by what our attorney calls "a murder plot by conspiracy similar to the Corrigan-Kocis-Cuadra case".   Can this once great star be pulled back from the brink of self-destruction in a battle not his own before our attorney's and P.I. recommendation for strong preventative action via law enforcement is put into effect? 

Could there be a pattern of erratic, possibly PTSD-based behavior based on this same star's well documented similar hate campaigns against a former business partner, paramour, and even a lease holder, all of whom are in contact with DAMON, his P.I. and our attorney?  Does this man and his enablers actually believe he can make threats of violence and try to intimidate us with impunity when in fact he's merely strengthening our resolve to prevail as we have always prevailed against 3 similar haters in the past decade, for the sake of justice, the First Amendment, and our right to be free of tortious interference and libel? 

Stay tuned for DAMON's daily dispatches from the field as we prepare to go to Chicago to the very heart of this darkness and bring the light of truth as we prepare to do some fierce casting of our own.

FORMER LOVER/MANAGER DAVID FOREST "in state of shock"

http://blogs.sacbee.com/crime/archives/2011/09/former-porn-sta.html

In a shocking turn of events, the confused 45 year old bisexual Marc Anthony Donais AKA RYAN IDOL - formerly repped by and once in a heavy relationship with "manager to the stars" DAVID FOREST and prominently featured in DF's upcoming book "THE STORY" - is now a convicted felon on a very serious charge of attempted murder of his live-in 41 year old female paramour.  Who could possibly have imagined such a fate for the hottest gay video stars of the 1990's, an industry icon once the object of desire for thousands of men - and not a few str8 women?  One thing's for sure - his collapse is now complete as yet another Gay Video Big Name sinks into ignominy and shame with many years of imprisonment likely ahead for him.

Quoting the Sacramento Bee:  "He testified at trial that he thought she had pulled a knife on him during their discussion in her bathroom and that he grabbed the toilet tank lid and hit her with it out of self defense."

AT LAST - GERMAN GENE THERAPY FOR HIV/AIDS NOW GAINING RAPID GROUND AS WORKABLE CURE

Berliner Timothy Brown is the first person to likely have been cured of his HIV/AIDS infection. Brown's HIV vanished after he developed leukemia and doctors gave him repeated blood transfusions from a donor who harbored a mutated version of a receptor the virus uses to enter cells. Now, researchers report promising results from two small "safe and well tolerated" gene therapy studies that imitate this tactic, providing real hope for AIDS sufferers worldwide who have waited for decades for this very promising breakthrough.

http://www.medpagetoday.com/MeetingCoverage/ICAAC/28595

Further critical details in this revealing brief quotation from Science Magazine:

"At the Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy in Chicago, Illinois, this weekend, researchers reported preliminary results from tests of a novel treatment in 15 HIV-infected people designed to free them from the need to take antiretroviral drugs. The studies, conducted separately on the East and West coasts of the United States, attempt to make the immune system resistant to HIV by crippling a receptor, known as CCR5, on T cells that the virus uses during the infection process. The man who donated blood for Timothy Brown's transfusions had naturally defective CCR5 receptors".

WHY DAMON DIDN'T BREAK THE SOAP OPERA STAR'S SON GAY VIDEO STORY - or, WHY YOU DON'T RAT OUT YOUR FRIENDS FOR CLICK-THROUGH INCOME AND PUT THE SWORD THROUGH A SENSITIVE YOUNG MODEL'S HEART

Jeremy is a friend of mine from acting class and has been going through a rough patch lately - including estrangement from his soap opera star mother.  His privacy and my respect for him as a friend motivated me to NOT out him as having done an explicit gay video scene for that well known site. Yes readers, it's disgusting and depressing to see what our competitors have done with this tawdry tale, so eager to juice up their hit counts without ever considering the obvious negative blowback effects on my friend Jeremy.  Now the young man is exposed to the world in a way never intended or desired, merely to gratify the petty egos of the hacks who practice yellow journalism in gay media. 

I advised Jeremy to delete his Model Mayhem profile, and I am further advising him to keep a very low profile for the next 90 days until the news cycle runs its course.  Like the Nebraska wrestlers in a similar situation several years ago, Jeremy is being mocked and pilloried in some quarters, and his privacy invaded in the worst Mark Wilson/Mason Wyler way. 

But the truth is Jeremy is a very humble, amiable and talented 20 something who never dreamed a quick $3000 for an afternoon's work would lead him to being the subject of a media frenzy for ratings and Zach Sire's click-through snarkiness - without anyone giving any consideration to the fact that this story should NOT have been reported in such a salacious and disrespectful way - if it should have been reported at all, now that Jeremy's mainstream modeling aspirations are about as likely as BRENT CORRIGAN's mainstream acting dreams are.

TARGET ACQUIRED! DAMON BUYS (2) xxx DOMAINS AFTER EXTENSIVE NEW YORK NEGOTIATIONS WITH THEIR CURRENT OWNERS to usher in the next chapter of the long running Kruezer saga; Security around DAMON remains high as haters gnash their teeth in frustration

IS BRENT CORRIGAN OVER?  WITH HIS MAINSTREAM ACTING CAREER UNREALIZED, HIS TWINKDOM NOW CLEARLY REPLACED BY EARLY MIDDLE AGE, AND HIS LATEST WEBSITE BROUGHT LOW BY HIS WEBHOST'S AVARICIOUS DREAMS THAT ARE NOW IN SHAMBLES, WHAT'S NEXT FOR THE FORMER OBJECT OF DESIRE - AND DIRECT MOTIVATOR OF OTHERS' DESTINY?

It now appears that Brent Corrigan - former King of the Twinks and a mainstream actor/model, at least in his own mind - has been brought sharply back to reality by recent jarring changes in his status and influence within the gay media world.  Rapidly losing the twinkish looks that made him the object of sometimes fatal desire by many, and disappointed in the lackluster results from the latest incarnation of his website launched typically with much fanfare and many promises that his webhost obviously could not and did not deliver on, it's time for a radical restructuring of the Corrigan brand and image in the Kruezer view.  The same boyish whispers confiding so much to us in our famous phone interview of 2007 has now been replaced by the deeper voiced harsh realities of the post-Cobra Video, post-Harlow Cuadra love affair era, and all that it resulted in.

Amazingly the new book on the Cobra Video murder case completely omits any mention of Corrigan's and Harlow Cuadra's interview with me the day before his arrest, and my relationship with murder victim Bryan Kocis, proving beyond any doubt the total journalistic bias and incompetence of the book's author, Peter Conway, who pretends his story is unbiased and complete when in fact it is neither.

Many have noted Corrigan's decline can be historically dated to his ill-advised appointment of the notorious gay-on-gay discriminator - and DK impersonator - Mark Wilson as his latest webhost, and his equally unfortunate choice of DeWayne in SD as his copyright agent, a position DeWayne denied for weeks that we later motivated him to prove that in fact, he was.  Yes, this is the same DeWayne - the self-admitted multi rehab center attendee, claiming to be all about fairness, equality and equal rights - many of you saw doing all that he could to discredit us and taint our 2009 Cybersocket Award nomination for Best Blog in a fit of jealousy and envy that forever destroyed DeWayne's credibility and influence.

Now it seems Karma has at last come full circle on Brent Corrigan and his extremely poor choices in allies and business partners, as even former paramour GRANT ROY now speaks of Corrigan with disgust, disdain and derision.

So what's next for BRENT CORRIGAN?  My suggestion is that he retire with what shreds of dignity he has left, close his website after severing all ties with the parasitical Wilson and skeevy DeWayne, pray that he isn't subpoenaed to testify under oath at any further court proceeding involving what he testified about concerning the wrongfully convicted HARLOW CUADRA, and try being Sean Lockhart, nearly 30 something La Jolla real estate developer.

NEW YORK CITY HERE WE COME as TEAM KRUEZER CONSIDERS ACQUIRING ONE OR TWO OF THE NEW

ANOTHER COBRA VIDEO/BRYAN KOCIS TYPE KILLING?

CLEAR AND CREDIBLE EVIDENCE OF PLOT INTENDED TO DO PHYSICAL VIOLENCE TO DAMON UNCOVERED; PRIVATE SECURITY TEAM AUGMENTED; LAW ENFORCEMENT NOTIFIED AND GIVEN CONSPIRATORS' OWN PUBLIC STATEMENTS WITH IDENTIFYING INFORMATION AS CONCERN OVER DOMESTIC TERRORISTS RUN AMOK GROWS; GAY MEDIA INDUSTRY FEARS "ANOTHER COBRA VIDEO/BRYAN KOCIS TYPE KILLING"

A serious, well financed "black ops" scheme intended to cause serious physical harm - or even death - to DAMON has been uncovered.  Remarkably similar in logistics and motivation to the notorious murder of Cobra Video's BRYAN KOCIS in January 2007 by an obsessed rival, we've carefully documented who the conspirators are, what they've said or implied, both publicly and privately, and how a formerly A list model has been ensnared in their sinzfull schemes.  Our private security and P.I. network is on high alert, and local, State and Federal law enforcement organizations (LEOs) have been advised, with accompanying datapacks documenting who these potentially violent domestic terrorists are.  This is a very serious situation that has clearly snowballed out of control, with the former combat Marine turned gay video star at the apparent forefront of this nefarious plot. 

The murderous anti-DK plotters - by their own private communications shared with us by one of them "no longer on the same page" and revulsed at how out of control this situation has become - are clearly hoping to use this unbalanced model, obsessed with clearing his name from what he's been convinced is a negative association, as their patsy and fall guy and then abandon him and disclaim any connection after the bloody deed is done.

developing...Mr. Giorgio Z., a certain Jason M. and a former mortgage lender are in contact about this model's history of violent outbursts and death threats made on his blog who it seems is now being misled into being the plotters' patsy as his final spiral downward into oblivion.  Can this model be saved - from himself and his own inner demons?

9/11/11

All of us here in Silverlake are observing the 10 year anniversary of the 9/11 attacks with solemnity, respect and concern.

The 2,977 deaths of the innocent victims can never be forgotten or minimized, although we also hope that the new surveillance society and endless war state that they give birth to will soon be modified and scaled back as the awareness of Osama Bin Laden’s failed ideology takes hold in the wake of the Arab Spring movement for democracy and against dictatorship – secular or religious.

DAMON will now prepare to set out on our return trip to New York City tomorrow and later this week, Providence RI as our investigative and research work on assignment for our clients moves forward.

Ricky's back working in the minor leagues at Corkscrew Media where his career began, but we can look back with great hotness - I mean fondness - at just what an Alpha dawg Sinz was back in his "BRUTAL Part 1" days.  When he was still young and good looking, that is. Raging Stallion never had it so good.  Now Sinz can run his mouth about issues and people he knows NOTHING about - and has NO reason to be involved with - in blissful semi-isolation back in the small pond he now swims in.  At least those introductions made for Sinz in the recent past are paying some of his bills thanks to return engagements - or so our ChiTown and S. Leandro friends tell us! 

Now will the Rickster try to claim "copyright infringement" because I'm using retail video boxcovers in the public domain - one of whom happens to feature him?  Let's see just how petty and vindictive some egotistical fading stars who think they're always right even when they're clearly wrong can be!  What did the greatly missed TOMMYSOCKS say about "drinking from poisonous wells"?

PRE-OP TRANSSEXUAL ALLEGEDLY RIPS OFF WALMART WITH BOYFRIEND'S HELP - forgetting just how ubiquitous covert surveillance equipment is these days in retail

$45,000 in cash isn't a bad day's work, but the conspicuous spending on big ticket items drew the wrong kind of attention.  Especially after Walmart private dicks reviewed the hidden camera tapes of who entered a forbidden room with a key he wasn't authorized to have.  But it was all in a good, gay - or transsexual - cause, and they ARE a cute couple with no previous record, so the law should go easy on them - don't you think?  And is it THAT hard to disable the cameras, with a little technical know-how?  It isn't - TRUST!

MARK WILSON CALLS DAMON YET AGAIN, the 14th time in 7 days; WE HEAR HEAVY BREATHING AND TEARFUL PLEAS; IS MARK TRYING TO PROPOSE ELOPEMENT TO NEW YORK FOR A QUICKIE MARRIAGE?

That's what our legal eagle thinks after listening to the tapes.  Honestly the aging 54 year old Southern belle is sounding positively coquettish, like he's imbibed more than a few mint juleps, as he blathers on and on in his endless heavy breathing voicemails.  Oh, Wilson disclaims any responsibility for the hacking of our DK blog - but hinted a sinzfull person was the one behind it.  Hmmm...I was thinking the Pitt-iful Jason much more likely, so stung is he over our calling him out on his brazen lies about who launched who's career and shared so many intimacies - complete with profuse published gratitude to us in his own words he can NEVER explain away!

TWEAKED OUT TWINK GOES TO THE DOGS, RUINS YET ANOTHER GAY WEATHERMAN'S CAREER BY DYING IN THE HOT TUB NEXT TO HIM

The choke dog collar didn't help, and no one seemed to realize that drugs, drinking and hot tubs really don't mix.  But what is it with so many apparently gay 30 something meteorologists getting involved on the dark side with PNP twinks that can only end badly - in ARKANSAS of all places?

Weatherman Brett Cummins (on the left) is off the air and deeply bereaved at the untimely death of his "best friend" Dexter Williams (on the right).  Our condolences to Dexter's friends and family, and our emotional support goes to Brett Collins, who never dreamed a night of partying would lead to such a tragic - and unnecessary - demise.  Let's just hope Brett isn't found to be legally complicit, or his weather TV career could be the very LEAST of his worries.

REPUBLICANS WILDLY APPLAUD TEXAS GOV. RICK PERRY'S "ACCOMPLISHMENT" IN SIGNING MORE DEATH WARRANTS THAN GEORGE W. BUSH AT MSNBC CANDIDATE DEBATE

Isn't it clear to you all now who these people really are?  Does Perry actually believe he accomplished something meaningful by putting 234 people to death with his signature on the death warrant - despite major doubts in at least 1/3 of the cases?  And the audience at MSNBC's Republican candidate's debate last night actually wildly applauding in excited praise at how many were killed?  The YouTube video is now viral and disgusts even those in favor of the death penalty.

IRAN HANGS 3 MEN FOR "ACTIONS AGAINST RELIGION" (BUT NOT AGAINST NATURE) AS OBAMA ADMINISTRATION REMAINS INCREDIBLY SILENT ON THIS OUTRAGEOUS HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSE

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/06/gay-men-hanged_n_951162.html

So much attention given to other human rights abuses in other countries - but never a word about such atrocities as this committed by Iran's theocratic regime against gay men.  Fundamentalism in action - something the fundies in this country would probably like to do, and yet another reason why Church and State should be forever separated by a very wide, very strong barrier.

VICIOUS HACKING ATTEMPT AT OUR AFFILIATED SITE DAMONKRUEZER.COM QUICKLY OVERCOME AND DEFEATED!

Everyone calling and texting and DMing, please be calm, the situation has been quickly resolved.  It seems our latest commentaries and operating protocols hit just too close to home, impacting the dark schemes of certain jealous rivals and a certain model fading in prominence, now acting irrationally to the concern of many of his fans and friends in touch with us, as he tries to rekindle interest in his tired macho posturing by unwisely involving himself in outright libel and defamation in a situation that does not concern him.  It's sinzfull, and all about what the embattled workplace rights pioneer Collin O'Neal is now quoting our iconic phrase "gay on gay discrimination".  The Kruezer community and all those who seek freedom, justice and freedom of speech and commerce can never be defeated, our solidarity is too strong for the haters to overcome!

MASON WYLER'S CAREER DESTROYED BY THE TOXIC INFESTATION KNOWN AS "MARK WILSON" THAT EVEN ZACH SIRE AT THE SWORD ACCURATELY CONDEMNS FOR WILSON'S "IMMORAL TACTICS," and for being "OUT OF HIS LEAGUE AND NONE OF HIS BUSINESS"

Ordinarily we'd give the Mark Wilson  sideshow a shrug and a yawn as warranted by such an irrelevant character from an irrelevant property no one cares about created by a man whose life has no meaning beyond aping the works of others who actually created something.  After all - look at what Wilson did for the careers of Jason Pitt (in forced retirement), Kameron Scott (a case study in low self esteem), MJ Taylor (disgraced and in Ohio exile), and Matthew Conaster (his former webmaster who resigned, reportedly in disgust with Wilson's shady business practices).

Check who's impersonating me on Twitter and elsewhere and you'll see it's Mark Wilson, by his own admission on record - who obviously has no shame in his self-righteous, self-appointed role as "guardian and supervisor of all gay media" who claims to know what's true, what's not true, and who should be online at all.  The fact that his company, Great Atlantic Media Group, is a bitter rival to other sites and businesses - including this one - of course has nothing to do with it.  Right?  Absolutely!  LOL

Now we come to the issue at hand with that bit of context out of the way.

Each gay video studio must have their own policy on testing and hiring.

Mason Wyler - a major star and "Wyler Nation" website owner for the past 4 years - wasn’t renewed by most if not all studios because of his HIV status. Yet I know some companies including Falcon "allegedly" use positive models.

I would assume for their own legal protection/liability, any company would require proof of status from their actors.

So who bans positive models and who doesn’t? I doubt any studio would have an official policy on record as to whether they hire positive performers or not. It would be safe to assume it’s more of a don’t ask, don’t tell scenario.

So how did ANYONE come to know about Wyler's HIV status, which he kept to himself, as he had every right to do?

Fact is, Mason Wyler had his HIV+ status publicly outed by MARK WILSON several months ago in a shockingly cruel and malicious instance of Wilson acting as judge, jury and executioner, based solely on Wilson's self-appointed status as someone who can and should do this type of reprehensible action, without even bothering to discuss anything with Mason Wyler in advance of his bombshell revelation. 

Now Wyler is considered unemployable by most major studios, and it's been that way for months, since Wilson's expose this Spring.

Is this legally in the category of tortious interference in Wyler's livelihood?  Lawyers may weigh in on this, but as a layman, I would say absolutely it is, given the degree of maliciousness and premeditated intent to harm Wyler's cash flow, and given that Wilson knew nothing about Wyler and has had nothing to do with Wyler or his career - until now.

So if this didnt happen, to this day I’m doubtful we would know about Wyler's HIV status.  Whatever one can say about Wyler's behavior or morality, the plain fact is publicly outing his HIV status by Mark Wilson is just so wrong in so many ways.  Even my rival ZACH SIRE at THE SWORD publicly condemned Wilson, telling him it was none of his business and not his judgment to make.

So what can we say about cash-strapped, egotistical and controlling business rivals like MARK WILSON eager to gain publicity by attacking and spreading malicious gossip about those he claims are "bad" for the industry - and the resultant 30 cents a click-through income for his pitiful "family" of sites all hosted on the same San Diego "virtual servers" ?

I think it's time for MARK WILSON and his tiny band of not-so-merry publicity seeking pranksters peddling GAY ON GAY DISCRIMINATION and 8 year old hate speech memes in the name of THEIR definition of "purity and righteousness" to slink quietly away, shut down their sites and turn them over to their RIGHTFUL, LEGITIMATE OWNERS, and never be heard from again. 

I'm talking about YOU, Dexx Jones! 

As for those sinzfully involving themselves in other people's drama, and allying with Wilson, I believe they need to carefully consider what highly controversial information there may be available on them as yet unreleased, and ask themselves if playing a role (for no valid or legitimate reason) in someone else's battle is worth the negative publicity and likely legal exposure their defamatory behavior is inching ever closer to bring upon themselves.

You know who you are.  I have stated my boundaries.  Actions have consequences.

DAMON's Florida investigative journey with Marc ON ASSIGNMENT to track down the HIV+ Gay for Pay model panicking the industry yields a definitive - and calming - result

HARD NEWS UPDATE

The male model in question has successfully disproved the accusations surrounding his HIV status by doing a retest that gave a negative result.  Video production can now resume, said Free Speech Coalition executive director Diane Duke.

"The industry will be abundantly cautious as we try to nail down the reasons for what now appears to have been a false positive result on a previous test," Duke said.

The Florida model had been slated to work on a shoot for Mofos.com, but production was halted last week when the test came back positive for HIV.

DAMON can tell you that the model is well known to gay audiences as well as str8s, has done strap-on videos, and was interviewed by DAMON in 2009.  His identity has been urgently requested to remain secretive, and based on our personal friendship as well as the legitimacy of the request, I will respect his wishes.

IS 70'S MEGASTAR JOHNNY HARDEN THE BIOLOGICAL FATHER OF BRENT CORRIGAN?

Evidence mounts as Harden offers DNA test while Corrigan awkwardly fumbles the question, pretends not to even wonder who his father is

Even Corrigan's notorious enablers like the often rehabbed-by-his-own-admission DeWayne in SD can't come up with a convincing enough cover story to obscure what may be a very shocking truth that Sean Lockhart aka Brent Corrigan has allegedly been in such fear and trepidation about.  Personally I'd WANT to know for sure who my birth father really is, and if a DNA test as offered by Gene Carrier aka Johnny Harden can settle the question definitively, what's Corrigan afraid of?  

DAMON believes it's time for the enablers and cover story manufacturers like DeWayne in SD and his increasingly irrelevant site to stand aside and LET THE TRUTH BE TOLD. I also believe Brent Corrigan needs to man up and realize his days of playing the "innocent twink above it all" are LONG over as the searchlight of Truth focuses like a laser beam on this issue.

ADULT INDUSTRY EXPERIENCES NEW WAVE OF PANIC AS YET ANOTHER HIV+ CASE IS DISCOVERED, this time from the Gay part of the industry; WE RECEIVE URGENT FSC COMMUNICATION ALONG WITH OTHER AGENTS AND PUBLICISTS

The shocking and unwelcome discovery on Saturday of yet another adult film performer who tested HIV positive has prompted a temporary shutdown of adult film productions across Los Angeles that started Monday until further testing can confirm the results, the FREE SPEECH COALITION said.

“Until we know for sure, we’ve asked the industry to have a moratorium on production,” said Diane Duke, executive director of the Free Speech Coalition.

Duke’s group became aware of the probable HIV case Saturday, according to a communication received at the Kruezer and other media offices, without divulging exactly how FSC became aware of the situation.

Ms. Duke said she notified adult film production companies across the San Fernando Valley Monday morning that a performer had tested positive and urged them to temporarily halt production work pending completion of further testing that would yield definitive results/

DAMON has learned the performer in question is from the Gay side of the industry.

DAMON has discovered that many models in both the Str8 and Gay side of the industry are understandably very concerned, with calls and texting to their agents and publicists, including DAMON, reaching a zenith this afternoon.

Why the sudden return of wannabe Dexx Jones doesn't matter, especially now that he admitted on Twitter he's paying a psych disability case for "dirt" and is working in tandem with admitted Twitter DK impersonator Mark Wilson, our obsessed rival

Verminous parasites seek to suck income from Gay Media by creating "phony war" against DAMON that COLLIN O'NEAL accurately calls "scary psychos"

Ironically and significantly, Jones' informer is on psychiatric disability, is taking one or more prescription psychiatric medications, and has at least one restraining order on file against him for what is described to me by this person's family member as "dangerous and out of control anger management and social maladjustment issues".  Interestingly, burnout twink director KEVIN CLARKE has apparently bankrolled this very pitiful 48 year old Chinese-American man and taken everything he's said as gospel truth.  Like Jones, Clarke never stopped to consider his unstable track record and psychiatric status, so eager were these anti-competitive conspirators to create their own "truth" to damage or slow the Kruezer initiative.

It hasn't worked, it's never worked, and it never will work.  It's been tried in various forms since 2002, yet here we are, still online with 5 sites under our ownership or control, with clients known and unknown and some not even imagined, and with our banners flying proudly.  Our 1st Amendment, and Title 18 rights, and right to be free of tortious interference in our livelihood will always trump the nefarious efforts of these obsessed individuals, who have yet to produce even ONE scintilla of evidence to prove ANY of their sinister claims.

As for DEXX JONES, he tried and failed to make an impact on gay media back in 2003, and 8 years later he's trying again, using the exact same M.O. used by MARK WILSON - befriend, offer employment and support, try to gain entre to personal and confidential information as an "ally/employer", then trump up some nonsensical reason to abruptly do a 180 turn and begin active persecution and online defamation in concert with a few others.

Jones is an unsuccessful crime fiction writer obsessed with homothugs, a fixation encouraged by his family, one of whom tells me "we bankroll Dexx just to keep him out of our hair and away from our cars, since he's crashed 3 already".

Wilson admitted last night on TWITTER that he is maliciously impersonating me there, in an amazing display of hubris and arrogance that will surely earn him very bad karma as well as the discipline of the law.  The fact that Jones publicly endorses this type of outrageous behavior - a behavior that would no doubt earn Jones' condemnation if it were himself being impersonated - tells you all you need to know about the incredible hypocrisy and double standards of these verminous parasites, seeking to gain publicity and click-through income on their fading websites by creating a totally fabricated hate campaign against THE KRUEZER.

Do not be deceived, confused or misdirected by these hateful rivals and their fraudulent claims.  Be assured they are being dealt with, one by one, by every legal means available, and will pay as dearly for their many offenses to the law as the courts allow.

The only REAL question is WHY otherwise sensible people - and even some Sinz-full models who have admitted to directly benefiting from certain introductions of mine - allow themselves to get caught up in other peoples' drama, especially when they have no valid personal or business reason to complain or criticize anything we have done, or plan to do, as the Kruezer agenda moves forward to its ultimate fulfillment in 2012. 

It's making them look like "crazy people" and "psychos" as embattled model/entrepreneur COLLIN O'NEAL very accurately put it to me last night.

TOMORROW:  Should DAMON and COLLIN O'NEAL join forces in a lawsuit for punitive and compensatory damages against the self-admitted anti-competitive conspirators seeking to deprive us of our livelihood, our liberty, and our right to engage in commerce?
