Specialty Definition: Hustler

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

A hustler can be a prostitute, pimp, or somebody committing economic crimes.

Hustler is a United States published pornographic magazine.

Larry Flynt first published Hustler in 1974 as a step forward from the Hustler Newsletter which was cheap advertising for his strip club businesses. The magazine grew from a shaky start to a peak circulation of around 3 million (current circulation is below 500,000).

Flynt's Hustler empire also owns the Hustler casino in Gardena, California.
