Young, successful entertainers

May 30, 2016



That's the address of the website for "An Open Secret," the 2014 documentary about the sexual abuse of children and teenagers in the entertainment industry.

I don't know if you are familiar with it; probably not, because I'm not.  I might have heard about it a few times before today, but it didn't get anywhere near the publicity that other movies have gotten; nether did "The Invisible War," a 2012 documentary about sexual assault in the military.

I think you should know what children and teenagers who want to be like you are susceptible to in the entertainment industry.  For every one of you, there are hundreds, even thousands, of children and teenagers who are exploited and whose lives are devastated.
