My Space, Part Two

The second part of the My Space feature for the February print edition of XBiz World is now online:

But the real issue here, critics say, is that by purchasing MySpace, Murdoch is, by proxy, buying a piece of the online adult industry and pimping News Corp. to a legion of porn fans, which is even more complicated by the fact that MySpace is regularly visited by underage users.

The MySpace Terms of Use Agreement specifies that member postings “may not contain nudity, violence, or offensive subject matter.” Although most of the porn star and porn-related pages at MySpace contain only partial nudity or none at all beyond provocative clothing and night wear, XBiz found one member page with a hardcore photo of male to female penetration. The member, Sammy Da Slut, writes about herself:

“I work at night as a stripper. I have a baby and her name is Selina. Her father was a guy who picked me up off the street. My baby needs a real dad, so does anyone wanna come and try out? But really! I love sex. I started when I was 11 and had a child when I was 13. I like both men and women. I am harsh in da sheets.”
