USAID CONTRACTS AWARDED TO PORN MERCHANT

WASHINGTON, March 4, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has been caught for having awarded $170 million in contracts to Population Services International Inc. (PSI), a non-profit company founded in 1971 by Philip D. Harvey, one of America's largest pornography merchants and founder of a $70 million-a-year mail-order porn business in North Carolina known as "Adam & Eve."

Andrew S. Natsios, USAID's administrator, has "ordered an immediate review of the PSI contract." Mr. Natsios was not aware of Harvey's "business activities outside of PSI," according to a USAID spokeswoman. Harvey's company sells X-rated videos and pictures, lingerie, sex toys, and love dolls over the Internet.
