WASHINGTON, D.C. — In April, Evil Angel founder John Stagliano was interviewed for Reason.tv by video journalist Nick Gillespie. The interview was recorded in Washington, D.C. on the same day that Stagliano was indicted on seven counts of obscenity by the federal government.

Stagliano, who has been vocal in defense of his work and pornography overall, discussed the case with Gillespie, as well as his views on the Miller test that defines obscenity, politics and the influence of the Internet on society. The director also described his own personal life, including how he contracted HIV and the positive affect it has had on his viewpoint.
