D MAGAZINE ADVERTISING SALES-people love to have scads of people calling their beepers-unless those calls come in the wee hours of a Sunday morning, placed by eager male customers looking for nude models.
That’s what happened recently when The Dallas Morning News erroneously printed the number of one of our female sales reps in an ad offering the services of an “Outrageous Party Girl” wit h “hot legs, great body, and a fun personality. ” The rep got some 70 calls in a 24-hour period, starting with a barrage around 4 a.m. when the paper hit the streets. (Talk about Early Birds!) To top it off, the real “Outrageous Party Girl” called her several hours later, apologized, and then asked that our saleswoman change her pager number so OPG wouldn’t miss any more business!
The News runs dozens of such classified ads for the kinky wet-massage, lingerie-modeling, dom-sub-fantasy community, so it could have been worse. Our saleswoman might have gotten stuck with the number for “models” Ashley and Haley, who are, The News tells us, “Barely legal and hilly bare.” Or the wires could have crossed with “I Command You,” the woman (or man) who is seeking “naughty boys who need discipline in German & English style domination.” Achtung, Morning News! We command you to get those numbers right.
