Remember Justin Berry? Sexerati first covered the former teen webcam operator back in December 2005, when then-New York Times reporter Kurt Eichenwald published his deeply disturbing feature, “Through His Webcam, a Boy joins a sordid online world” — disturbing, as a portrait of sexual exploitation, carried out in the now forever-intertwined worlds of amateur porn and the mainstream media.
Susie Bright reminds us:
From the get-go, both stories were creepy: the softcore sexy descriptions, the “blame the internet” righteousness, the homophobic ick factor, and the unexplained implication that Eichenwald had looked at piles of this material himself, when by current law, he wouldn’t have that right, no matter how well-intentioned his purpose!
Now, nearly two years later, Eichenwald’s crusade continues to unravel, the latest twist being that the reporter himself was a webmaster on Berry’s webcam site. Initially, the Times defended Eichenwald’s right to have visited the webcam site, but now? When it becomes apparent again that to investigate “child porn” might mean to participate in it?

Queers take to the streets for the right to free assembly in New York City, where city officials have proposed that no group of fifty or more may gather without a permit. Last weekend, the Radical Homosexual Agenda organized a parade without a permit in the name of queer mutiny and the Bill of Rights. The proposed permit change is the work of out lesbian City Council Speaker, Christine Quinn, and would criminalize NYC’s historic Dyke March, Drag March, as well as not-just-for-queermosexual actions like Critical Mass.
But leave it to sexual outlaws to take the lead on American values:
“The military junta in Myanmar has ruled that five or more people cannot gather in the streets there. Does Speaker Quinn really believe the difference between a junta and a democracy is 45 people?” [RHA organizer] Doody asked.
After the cut, three videos right from the scene.
