If being addicted to Internet porn merits a stay in rehab, then those facilities should be more crowded than state prisons. But rumors of David Duchovny's sex addiction being rooted online and not in other women's bedrooms need to be taken with a shaker of salt. The only thing less reliable than a gossip columnist, after all, is a gossip columnist for Fox News. According to their celeb scribe Richard Friedman, he's had a conversation with a pal of Duchovny's who insists the Californication star has battled a porn problem for years, and isn't balling his tennis instructor.

What's more disconcerting than the report's virtually groundless credibility is that on the list of headlines atop the "Fox411" gossip page, a story on the welfare of New Orleans musicians comes after the supposed Duchonvy exclusive. Which is just about in line with how Fox News' conservative congressional kin prioritized Katrina in the first place.

But if the story turns out to be solid, it brings up a whole larger issue. At what point are we going to stop punishing ourselves for channeling our wildest adulterous fantasies through the relatively healthy filter of anal gangbanging websites? In the spirit of standing up against this puritanical outrage, I will, for the second day in a row, provide a link for no particular reason to the (very NSFW) scene of Elizabeth Berkley and Kyle MacLachlan having crazy Excorcist sex in a pool in Showgirls.
