U.S. official: Porn found in bin Laden compound
**Pretends to be watching CNN**
The U.S. military found a large cache of pornography in the hideout of Osama bin Laden, Reuters is reporting.
An unnamed U.S. official said the porn is an extensive collection of “modern, electronically recorded video.”
I’m not sure what they mean by “electronically recorded,” since I don’t know of a way to record video with some form of electronics. I think they mean the video was stored digitally.
It is not known if bin Laden himself watched the videos, or how the videos were obtained. The compound in Pakistan had no Internet connection, but did include TVs and video playback devices.
Three officials said it is “not uncommon” for Islamic militants to have porn collections.
