4:06Now PlayingVivid Entertainment CEO Steven Hirsch shares his thoughts on the media's portrayal of an HIV outbreak in the porn industry, stating "nothing could be further from the truth." He adds that because of the testing in place in the industry, actors haven't contracted or transmitted HIV through filming scenes, but believes they contracted it from sex outside the industry.
After speaking about Vivid having a mandatory condom rule in place when they first started, Hirsch explains that he wasn't comfortable with the testing available back then, but adds that testing is much safer and frequent today. He then opens up about Vivid's lawsuit against the Los Angeles County Health Department in opposition to Measure B, which requires all actors wear condoms for scenes.
