Video: Cover-story writer Alison Lee talks "The New Face of Porn"

Posted by Graham F. Scott at 03:19 PM ET

November/December 2008 CoverWe're very excited to share with you the first in what we hope will be a series of This Magazine video features; some of these may stand on their own, while others — like this discussion with Alison Lee, who wrote the cover story in the November/December 2008 issue, "The New Face of Porn" (at right) — will expand on articles and ideas in the magazine, or offer a chance to meet the magazine's contributors behind the scenes.

Alison's cover story will be available on our website at thismagazine.ca soon, but you can buy it now from better bookstores and newsstands, and if you subscribe, it should land in your mailbox very shortly.

I'll post another video tomorrow, and then on Thursday look for a downloadable audio interview in which I talk with Edmonton writer Myrna Kostash about another cover story on pornography she wrote for This Magazine — in 1978.

Great story.
I've used it as the basis for my own blog entry:
