Easy Finder magazine was acquitted yesterday of publishing child pornography when it ran pictures of a young pop singer in a wet T-shirt. Kwun Tong Magistrate Gary Lam Kar-yan conceded that one of the four pictures of Renee Lee Wan, published last June when she was 14, did suggest the outline and shape of her left breast and nipple. Full story here.In my opinion, this seems a little overboard to me. I saw the original pictures and only with a vivid imagination could the pictures be viewed as ‘pornography’. It does make you wonder about child pornography laws though. Not to mention the fact that her mother was willing to allow her 14 year-old daughter to pose in the suggestive “wet t-shirt” pics – and happily collect money for them – until the public outcry; then she too was misled and wronged.
