The blog Boston Sports Media went after WEEI for making the situation worse--by talking about it for awhile (to get good ratings) it was actually driving more traffic to the site and the pic of Ben Brady, nude.
Privacy? Indecency?
"Well, the kid's only a two year old..." (So, what if it were "hot bods of the Little League" the station was running, candid locker room pix? What if they had a shot of an 8 or 9 yr old "son of Tom Brady" naked--would that be acceptable, or is the fact the boy is only 2 just innocent fun? Some say the real issue is the comment: "Check out the Howitzer on Brady's kid..."
one comment to Herald article:
>>I am friends with one of the officers that showed up at his house. Dave was crying like a baby because he thought he was finally in trouble. He was balling his eyes out and asked if he took down the post if they would leave.
They schmuck is lucky he’s not in jail with no bail for kiddie porn.
Okay in my world I would have to wonder what kind of a weirdo would do this- purpose? getting his jollies for the day? attention grabber? Just plain perverted?
Nothing wrong with nudity, but someone else’s toddler?
I would lump all of the above together and say genuinely perverted.
It’s not the pics of the kid themselves that I find worst. (Although, yes, I wouldn’t have posted them uncensored, myself.) It’s the filthy commentary about a defenseless toddler.
Perhaps, just perhaps, in 18-20 years, that lad will grow up, fit and strong and perhaps trained in martial arts, and pay this blogger a visit. Remember Me? No? Maybe it’s because I’m wearing CLOTHES. *SOCK*
So, parents can and have been arrested for photos of their own child in a bathtub, but Portnoy gets off after posting a nude photo of someone else’s kid?
This guy isn’t in jail for posting a picture of a toddler’s genitalia and commenting graphically upon it because-—?
Oh, and this lovely tidbit is from the comments at the article:
“It will be interesting to see if there is any more legal action taken, especially given Portnoy’s lewd commentary and the obscene comments of his loyal stoolies stating that they would like to see Brady’s son engage in sexual acts with other toddlers.”
I think it’s undeniable that Portnoy gets off on little boys’ private parts.
Portnoy (an apt name) is no different from the disgusting pedophiles who publish photos of 2 year-olds being anally raped.
He belongs in jail.
The guy’s got a generally offensive site. His foulness is not limited to this bit with Brady’s son.
will he complain?
This incident is despicable. Where was the father? How old is the mother? Surely she must be savvy enough as a long time “celebrity” to realize in this matter that she was leaving her son vulnerable to the camera of pervs.
