TNP writes that as if the girl is poor thing kena taken advantage of.. BUT if she doesn't offer herself up for such shoots, non of such things would had happened in the first place.
Now it makes all photogs sound as if we're all sex starved tikopeks. Of course, some might be, but not all. I've seen some very well taken nude shoots before here. Sheesh... so much for reporting. Instead of reporting news, TNP creates the news.
TNP = Totally Nonsensical Paper? :bsmilie:
15yr old model cons a group of buaya to pay for shoot & get shot for shooting! :sweatsm:
I felt that the newspaper article was very one-sided.
They enlarged the blacksheeps to represent the whole of clubsnap, and covering up those decent ones.
I thought newspapers were supposed to be neutral and reportive, not slanted?? One of the models interviewed also told me that she felt the reporter was using directional questions trying to make her blurt that clubsnap is a bad place.
Eh gal, newspapers in Singapore are always one-sided.
Even your model friend told you liaoz, they just want to present the article to sell newspaper. How it works is that they first figure out what they want (okay lets paint them as devils); next they go find quotes to support the story.
Out of 10 they interview, if 2 suits their POV and 8 doesn't, they just quote the 2 and bury the 8. Who will know better?
The journalist CS-er already told us already in an earlier post/thread how his industry works.
This will triple tnp sales :sweatsm:
But i feel unfair to clubsnap. Now the world misunderstood that ALL clubsnap photographers are humsup -.- Yes, some are, but majority of the ones i met are decent.

What to do? the world isn't fair. They want to sell their newspaper so they just create news lor. Good way to sell - the fact everyone is talking about it now means they sold heck of a lot of newspapers.
All we can do is post here to provide the counterview, cast doubt on the accuracy of their reporting, expose people with vested interests or agendas, and at the end of the day, let people decide themselves what to believe.
I think those who post are generally ok, but there are tonnes, tonnes and tonnes of lurkers here who visit only the subforums of Model Shoots and Services Offered. And those are the more dangerous sort.
So limit who can visit the models shoots and services section based on their number of posts over a period of time?
age limit still best, so easy to rake up post count. lol.![]()
