Open Letter to Village Voice Media in the NY Times

Groundswell letter to VVM

A Note: Backpage has contacted us since the clergy letter ran in a New York Times advertisement to inform us that it was their view that advertisements for commercial sex were still appearing on the Craigslist website. It is our view that any website or business, including Craigslist and Backpage, must take whatever actions are necessary to prevent others from using their business to exploit children and minors.
