  • News Release
    DEPARTMENT OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL News Release NEIL ABERCROMBIE GOVERNOR _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ DAVID M. LOUIE RUSSELL A. SUZUKI ATTORNEY GENERAL FIRST DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL Phone: (808) 586-1500 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ For Immediate Release: August 31, 2011 News Release 2011-18 ATTORNEYS GENERAL TO BACKPAGE.COM: PROVE YOU ARE FIGHTING HUMAN TRAFFICKING HONOLULU – Attorney General David Louie and 45 other attorneys general today called for information about how Backpage.com presumably attempts to remove advertising for sex trafficking, especially ads that could involve minors. In a letter to the online classified site’s lawyers, the attorneys general say that Backpage.com claims it has strict policies to prevent illegal activity. Yet the chief legal officers of Washington state, Missouri and Connecticut have found hundreds of ads on Backpage.com’s regional sites that are clearly for illegal services. “It does not require forensic training to understand that these advertisements are for prostitution,” the attorneys general wrote. The letter says the hub for illegal sex ads is a magnet for those seeking to exploit minors and points to more than 50 cases, in 22 states over three years, involving the trafficking or attempted trafficking of minors through Backpage.com. “These are only the stories that made it into the news; many more instances likely exist,” the attorneys general wrote. They also reminded Backpage.com of a 2010 request from nearly two dozen attorneys general asking that the adult services site be taken down. “Backpage.com’s adult service advertisements are a beacon for human traffickers and easy for them to exploit,” Hawaii Attorney General David Louie said.

  • 2011 State of the News Media Report
    Overview By Tom Rosenstiel and Amy Mitchell of the Project for Excellence in Journalism By several measures, the state of the American news media improved in 2010. After two dreadful years, most sectors of the industry saw revenue begin to recover. With some notable exceptions, cutbacks in newsrooms eased. And while still more talk than action, some experiments with new revenue models began to show signs of blossoming. Among the major sectors, only newspapers suffered continued revenue declines last year—an unmistakable sign that the structural economic problems facing newspapers are more severe than those of other media. When the final tallies are in, we estimate 1,000 to 1,500 more newsroom jobs will have been lost—meaning newspaper newsrooms are 30% smaller than in 2000. Beneath all this, however, a more fundamental challenge to journalism became clearer in the last year. The biggest issue ahead may not be lack of audience or even lack of new revenue experiments. It may be that in the digital realm the news industry is no longer in control of its own future. News organizations — old and new — still produce most of the content audiences consume. But each technological advance has added a new layer of complexity—and a new set of players—in connecting that content to consumers and advertisers. In the digital space, the organizations that produce the news increasingly rely on independent networks to sell their ads. They depend on aggregators (such as Google) and social networks (such as Facebook) to bring them a substantial portion of their audience. And now, as news consumption becomes more mobile, news companies must follow the rules of device makers (such as Apple) and software developers (Google again) to deliver their content.

TOWARD A BETTER COMPETITION POLICY FOR THE MEDIA: THE CHALLENGE OF DEVELOPING ANTITRUST POLICIES THAT SUPPORT THE MEDIA SECTOR’S UNIQUE ROLE IN OUR DEMOCRACY. Maurice E. Stucke∗ & Allen P. Grunes †‡ It is difficult to formulate meaningful competition policy when there is a fierce debate over the current competitiveness of the media industry. After addressing the importance of the marketplace of ideas in our democracy, our article examines the current state of the media industry, including the response of traditional media to audience declines, the growth of new media, the impact of media consolidation (including its impact on minority and women ownership), and the role of the Internet. In response to recent calls for liberalizing cross-ownership rules to protect traditional media, our article outlines why conventional antitrust policy is difficult to apply in media markets, and how the concerns underlying media mergers differ from other industries.

  • Lacey and Larkin Wrote
    Dear Colleagues, Friends, and Critics, Two Irishmen and a lawyer walk into a bar… The best jokes derive their humor from real life. Jim and I have spent much of our time in the past few years huddled with attorneys in ongoing litigation over the First Amendment, free speech on the Internet and Backpage. We have federal court victories for Backpage in Missouri and Washington and are awaiting a federal judge’s ruling in Tennessee. Throughout this struggle we have also locked horns in numerous media venues with the National Association of Attorneys General. This particular fight is important and not one that we intend to abandon. At the same time, Backpage’s battles are an enormous distraction to publishers, editors and readers of Village Voice Media. Consider the management challenge: our publishing business covers thirteen cities and nine states; Backpage spans 600 cities and contemplated expansion envisions business in more than two dozen countries. Clearly we face a choice. Consequently, we have decided to sell our newspaper publishing and online media company. Jim and I have never wished to be the last ones at this remarkable party. We are selling to your current management team including: Scott Tobias, Christine Brennan, Andy Van De Voorde, Kurtis Barton, Stuart Folb, Josh Fromson, Gerard Goroski, and Jeff Mars. Larkin and I depart to devote our undivided attention to the defense of Backpage, which is not part of the sale. If it seems that we now spend as much time with attorneys as we do with writers, the truth is we have always kept the company’s footing through litigation.
