News Corp.'S INTERNET COMMUNITY SITE -- Apr 13 -- MySpace hired Hemanshu Nigam who was previously the director of consumer security outreach and child-safe computing at Microsoft. Myspace is consolidating a number of duties; outreach to law enforcement, overseeing site security and user safety. Myspace is deleting profiles that include "questionable material" (200,000 profiles), and is reviewing 2 million images a day. It has also launched a series of online public service announcements on its own site as well as other News Corp. properties, warning users about online sexual predators. "1 in 5 kids online is sexually solicited. Online predators know what they're doing. Do you?" FULL ARTICLE @ MEDIA POST
Mark Brooks: Smart move. LA Times called into me last week to enquire about them and ask for user tips. Myspace is going through a PR nightmare.
