Also, Tom's editorial back when the .xxx proposal was in it's infancy was just that - an editorial; not the official support of AVN one way or another. Granted, an opposing editorial would have been a good idea too, but I still say it's unfair to somehow hold AVN responsible for .xxx . |
I understand Tom's position in all of this and have spoke to him but at the end of the day...
If I throw a party and a person drowns in my pool..do they sue the pool manufacturer or pool cleaner?
Or the owner of the house?
He may have wrote that years ago, but he wrote it on AVN stationary.
Still doesn't look to good as far as AVN is concerned-
People are entitled to change their opinions and yes, Tom was just a writer back then..
The owners of AVN can only lie so long- the skeletons are coming out of the closet one by one.
They may not even know that Tom was quoted in that White Paper, however ignorance is no excuse.
