Patrick Trueman is the CEO of Morality in Media, the oldest and one of the most effective organizations fighting the problem of pornography. He is also the former Chief of the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Criminal Division, U.S. Dept. of Justice.
The New York Post reported Monday that New Yorkers can watch Internet porn at the city’s 200-plus branch libraries thanks to a free speech policy protected by the First Amendment. The library is making this claim in spite of the fact that by law, libraries that accept federal funding must have blocking or filtering measures in place.
Trueman contradicts the claim by the American Library Association and others that these libraries have to allow porn because of the First Amendment. He also exposes the poor performance record of various White House administrations in not enforcing obscenity laws and tells listeners how they can make a difference through contacting the U.S. Attorney
General’s office.
