My experiences of dealing with media types is that they exist to uphold the status quo and push lies/shit/fear/advertising while the staff do as much class A drugs as possible.
Don't expect any kind of positive/sensible outcome to this dispute. Edited 23 Jun 06, 10:31 PM by dean2001

Sorry Dean but that's inflamatory, drivel and just plain wrong.
You clearly haven't dealt with this kind of 'media type'. ==================================

Lines of attack:
1. Sarah Kent is a big beast in the art world: we will come across as minnows besides. One of her enemies is Brian Sewell. If we have anything that feels like dirt, Brian would lap it up.... feed him. He can probably outbitch Sarah.
2. One of her earliest attachments was as champion of the cause of feminist art and female artists. Sounds like a visit from Feminists against censorship might be in order.
3. There have been mutterings about the conflict of her being both Art Editor for TO AND an artist/artistic sponsor in her own right. She also is known for her work on the male nude. If one wished to complain to TO's editor, it might be worth rattling those sort of cages. The word 'hypocrisy' springs to mind.
4. Big bad artistic beast in hypocrisy scandal. I can imagine most of the broadsheet diaries would lap it up. Well: Telegraph, Times and Indie. Guardian maybe not.
So if all else fails, it might be worth a punt to the diary editors about how this renowned feminist artist who likes photographing nude males is so blinkered when it comes to bdsm.
Icing on the cake? Well....get a comment from Sewell first and you have several paras worth of story.

M

Manniq, I think The Guardians Media Monkey would be quite interested in the hypocrisy angle. |

There's certainly a view that even posing with consent female (and male) pornographic models for example are exploited and that isn't a good thing. I'm not saying that's my view but she wouldn't be alone in holding it but if they would not reject material or ads for events which show men in bondage that might be cause for complaint. If they object to bondage per se then I doubt there's much can be done about it.

Sarah Kent spent some while working on images of the nude male. Some of the output from that can be found here.
Nuff said?
