San Francisco Adult Entertainment: East Bay ACORN chapters feel impacts of national brouhaha

East Bay ACORN chapters have shut down many of their local services as a result of the national scandal surrounding voter registration fraud and videotapes shot by undercover conservative activists posing as a prostitute and her pimp, in which the organization’s workers offer advice about cheating on taxes and operating a brothel with underage immigrant girls.
“We do a lot of good work in the community for low- and moderate-income families and minorities,” said Contra Costa ACORN Director John Adams. “But whatever perception is out there about ACORN nationally hurts us locally.”

Long a target of conservative groups, ACORN became a household name a few weeks ago after activists James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles posed as a pimp and a prostitute and secretly videotaped their conversations with ACORN employees in Baltimore and several other locations.
