Girl Goes Wild on Joe Francis

Joe Francis, mastermind behind the "Girls Gone Wild" videos, was allegedly punched in the eye last Friday night... by a girl. The details of the incident are sketchy, but police and paramedics were summoned to the site of a party thrown by a friend of Francis. A fire truck also arrived on the scene, just in case.

The extent of Joe's injury is unknown, but he was certainly upset, at one point raising his voice while talking to a police officer. Joe can be heard declaring that "the mitigating factor is my eye", and "we'll let it be decided in court". Later Joe holds what appears to be an improvised ice-pack to the left side of his face.

By the time he left the scene, Joe had calmed down, telling a photographer "Everything's fine. It was just a... misunderstanding".

Considering how many times Joe's company asks girls to lift up their shirts, it's a wonder he doesn't get slugged more often.

13. it's funny that people can't go through the day without bashing someone the bottom line is that the man is making a very good living at showing people naked stop being such a prude if it was illegal i would have a problem with it it's a shame that not one of you had comment for the girl that assualted him which is illegal people need to grow up because i can assure you if someone hit you in the face no matter what you said to them you would act the same way.

17. I don't think the guy is do anything wrong, so what he is making money off a whole lot of drunk sluts. If they are not big enough to control thier alcohol and make bad choses, by letting someone influence them then they should not drink. Also I have been to spring break when I was younger and let me tell you the girls are usually worse then the guys, right women don't all of you act as if you were perfect angels when you were younger because some of you are just mad because you yourself are a closet freak. Keep making your money Joe!!!

18. For #13 isn't there such a thing as 'victim initiated' incidents? I don't know about how things are there, but where I come from if a man calls a woman the name #4 claims, then the cops would say he got what he deserved!

20. If you have ever seen this guy interviewed - he is a dick!! Someone who believes that he has money therefore he is better than the rest of us. I believe he called the girl a (c.u.next tuesday) because thats the arrogance he exudes. He deserved to get a punch in the face as would anyone who says that to any woman. I feel he has no respect for woman, and maybe he has only met the ones that don't resect themselves. Whichever I 'm glad someone brought him down to earth...

21. Joe Francis is a brilliant entrepreneur. I don't condone his product but he delivered a product to the public that was clearly desired based on his company's yearly revenue. However there are far worse things in this world than a girls gone wild video. Joe Francis isn't corrupting our youth, he is simply profiting off of the corruption. He's not the one we should be worrying about. Blame the media for having this kind of influence on our youth or blame the parents of the girls for allowing them to grow up with low morality and no self-respect. Remember that the FCC must think the commercial is airable on TV. If you want change you need to solve this problem from the source. The media needs to change. Rules need to be tightened as to whats allowed on TV. South Park aired an episode in prime time where they said shit at least a hundred times. Parents need to monitor what their children our watching. There are lock features on most cable boxes to lock certain shows they deem unfit for their children's eyes. Tthis must be implemented so our sons and daughters dont grow up thinking its okay to have pre-marital sex when your 14 or 15 This problem started long before Joe Francis was around. Blaming him is a way to escape acknowledging our failure as a society to properly raise this generation. Sure Joe Francis is not an angel, but he's not the problem. This should be a wake up call that something so incredibly insane could be so profitable. GGW is the one of the things ive seen lately that show just how dispicable western civilization is. We wonder why the world hates us??? In 2003 pornography was a $12.0 billion dollar a year business. That is larger than the combined revenue of all professional football, basketball, and baseball franchises or the combined revenues of NBC, ABC and CBS.


on a side note:
There are horrible corporate entities worse than GGW that exist in America i.e. Altria (formerly phillip morris) and RJ Reynolds. Both companies sell cigarettes and both have been found to have specifically promote their product to our youth using advertising appealing to children and teens. They are knowingly advertising a product that is both illegal and extremely deadly and addicting!! We should get angry at the companies that are exporting American Jobs to foreign nations. It is good that their economies are on the rise. But our unemployment rate is completely unacceptable.

Joe Francis is not a bad guy. Hes a young man in his prime, who started a small company and became rich. He's living the American Dream.

22. Haley "bunch of slutty girls being shoved in your face"

You must have 3-D and change the channel or don't get cable.

Boo hoo, this guy is ruining our society. Most parents do that to their own children.

24. I AM SO SICK OF PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN AND COMPLAIN ABOUT OTHERS. TAKE SOME PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, IF YOU DONT LIEK IT THEN CHANGE THE CHANNEL, NO ONE ASKED YOU TO WATCH IT. MAYBE PEOPLE NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON THEIR KIDS AND STOP BLAMING OTHERS FOR THIER LACK OF PARENTING. IF YOU, YOU DRINK YOU GET WHATS COMMING TO YOU.

27. I was at RJ's party too....Joe is the biggest maniacal pussy I've ever seen. He came up behind the twins, squeezed their arms so hard that it left a black and blue bruise, called them cunts and said they had to leave immediately. He then grabbed a camera from one of the girls, pulled the memory card out and tried smashing it on the ground. He's an absolute cokehead maniac and should be in bars getting fucked in the ass by hardened inmates. When he was punched in the face, it was more out of self defense because he was pulling the hair of the other twin.

Joe, you're a fag and can't imagine how you'd react if you got hit in the face from someone who ISN'T female and 110 lbs.

28. Joe is a friend of mine and he is a very nice guy, I don't completely agree with how he makes his money, but it is a brilliant idea and all of you haters are probably just jealous you didn't cash in on it first. As far as the incident at the party goes, you guys know that you would also be upset (just as much as Joe, if not more), if you thought your vision was damaged. And if you care to know, I saw him on Sunday and his eye is healing perfectly. He's doing great!

29. Hmmm... what does Joe schmo expect from his funny encounter ? a peck
on the cheek ? Not likely ! He had to find out the embarrasing way. And,
in the public eye, too. What a goofball !!! The police officer should have
arrested him for being under the influence, lewd behavior in public, verbal
assault on an officer...

30. I personally think Joe Francis is a male sexist disgusting Pig!

Once again men have devised another way to solicit, exploit, degrade, and get rich off of women. It makes me so sick...I also blame those stupid women for allowing such to happen to them...It aint worth the risk or humiliation...Especially since Joe Francis has profited from the bodies of all these silly little girls and women. In fact Joe Francis was on the Tyra Banks show, and he himself said if he were a woman "he would never do what these women are doing." Go figure Fools!
