Internet Brands, Inc - ModelMayhem.com "Model" website glorifies violence against women, lynching of black woman El Segundo California

The website www.modelmayhem.com is supposed to be about modeling and photography. It is that, but its management also purposely allows images to be posted which glorify violence against women and racist lynching.

An image of a black woman being lynched was posted in an onsite photo contest on 10/16/14. It is attached. The image was reviewed and approved by a site "moderator" before going live.

When I posted an outraged objection to the image, my objection was quickly taken down by another moderator and I was threatened with removal from the site for "rule violation"

ModelMayhem.com has a lot of rules concerning nudity and sexual content of images. It appears to have no rules regarding images that promote violence against women or which degrade members of a particular race. The behavior of the site administration in approving the lynching photo and squelching my objection to it shows that this isn’t just the aberrant act of some rogue user. Rather, it reflects a corporte/site policy to tolerate images of violence and racial degradation.

I hope you will help me expose this bogus website for what it is.

This very disturbing and racist image passed moderation and was posted in a contest. Who the hell is in charge here?
