[comp.dcom.telecom] MCI Halts Billing for Sex Lines

Henry Mensch <henry@ads.com> (05/07/91)

In an article in today's {San Fransisco Chronicle}, a different reason
is offered for MCI's decision to not provide billing service for
900-service providers ... "An MCI spokeswoman said that the MCI policy
would cover programs and advertisements, either recorded or live,
"that offer sexual stimulation or sexual arousal."

They go on to say that "the companies will continue to handle calls
for other kinds of 900 services."

Now, who's telling the truth here?
