Thomas Chip White (owner of degreeinfo) admits he's a gay teen porn king - ham - 06-01-2009

Thomas Chip White (owner of degreeinfo ), also dabbles in controversial alternative medicine prescribing enemas to treat ailments such as cancer; he claims to "train physicians" in the questionable Gerson therapy but -hear this- has no university degree soever. Below you see him admitting publicly his role as gay teen porn king...how he waltzes past objections is something no 'Nazi' or milled degree owner could do better...

-----
The moderators have made me aware of the various threads regarding my involvement with the adult industry. Because I am busy working on a lot of other projects, I'm checking in maybe a couple times a month at most to DegreeInfo. So I apologize for the delay in responding on this issue. I’ll do my best to address this issue as clearly as I can.

The short answer to the question everyone is asking is yes, I am one of several owners of Media Resource Communications (MRC), which is a media company that has among its properties several adult websites and other media properties. I am not the majority stockholder in the company, but I am involved in the company with marketing, project management, IT services, and various other aspects. I have worked with both the adult and non-adult properties that MRC operates. And MRC is just one of a number of companies and projects with which I’m involved; it’s not by any means my sole source of income.

DegreeInfo.com, LLC is a California LLC with three owners -- myself, Nate, and Keith. DegreeInfo.com LLC runs the DegreeInfo.com website, which includes the searchable database, the web discussion boards, and the occasional education-related consulting work we've done in the past, such as co-authoring Bears' Guide. DegreeInfo does not now, nor has it ever had any involvement in any entertainment industry, adult or otherwise, nor does it have any other non-education related business dealings of any kind.

The next question I am anticipating is the relationship between degreeinfo and MRC. There is none. Never has been, never will be. DegreeInfo has been profitable on its own since, I think, 2002, so no MRC money has ever been used to support DegreeInfo, nor have any funds ever been commingled between MRC and DegreeInfo. I am the only common owner between the two organizations. I've never been secretive about my work with MRC; while I realize that adult content is controversial, there are many large companies with their fingers in that arena, including Adelphia, OnDemand, and Cabill in the US, and countless other very large corporations in the US and Europe who own adult media properties, and so I’ve never felt any need to hide my connection with MRC. At the same time, out of respect to those who are offended by it, I also don’t trumpet from the treetops about my work in that field, because it wouldn’t be appropriate to do so. When it comes up, I address it. That’s pretty much the way I’ve always been about everything.

The third issue relates to the accusations about pedophilia and child pornography. Anyone who knows me knows I would never have anything to do with any organization or activity that would be involved in harming children or putting them at risk in any way, nor would I have any involvement in anything that would promote or condone pedophilia. MRC has always been strongly opposed (as are all other reputable companies involved in adult media) to any exploitation of children or anything that promotes pedophilia. The adult industry is heavily regulated, and MRC's adult properties are fully compliant in every way, including maintaining proper proof of age for all models, and only purchasing content from reputable content producers that are known in the industry for ethical behavior. Like all other reputable companies with involvement in adult media, MRC participates in trade associations that work together and report any suspicions of child pornography or child exploitation, and takes steps to ensure that the companies it works with are compliant and ethical in their business dealings. I personally will have absolutely nothing to do with any business, individual or entity engaged in any form of pedophilia or child pornography ever, under any circumstances. Regardless of one's views on the appropriateness of adult content in society, I think that we can all agree that child pornography and pedophilia have no place in a civilized society, and anyone who believes otherwise deserves to suffer the consequences of their violation of the law.

I realize that adult entertainment is controversial and is frowned on by many people in society. Yet there are plenty of others who see adult materials as something that, used appropriately, can be helpful and beneficial to many of those who choose to view it in the privacy of their own homes. It’s not the appropriate venue to argue for or against adult media in society, but I will say that some time ago, MRC adopted a 10 point business philosophy related to its adult properties that ensures its customers, the models whose work is displayed, and the other companies with whom it does business are treated honestly, ethically, and with dignity and respect. That philosophy is linked directly from the main page of all of MRC’s adult websites, and it is a guiding factor in all of MRC’s actions in the adult sector. I realize that the notion of ethics and dignity in the production and distribution of adult content may seem like an oxymoron to some, but anyone who takes the time to actually speak with the reputable companies in the industry will probably be very surprised to find that there are many companies in adult media that are run by honest, upstanding, ethical people who happen to be comfortable working in an industry that markets adult entertainment products.

I must admit I am very surprised at the uproar, and deeply concerned that DegreeInfo regulars somehow feel that they will be tarnished by association. DegreeInfo is a large, diverse community with hundreds of active posters whose political, social, economic, religious, and all other interests, practices and preferences are all over the map. It is a lively, vibrant community that represents the diversity inherent in our society. Although I am an owner of DegreeInfo, DegreeInfo really represents the collective thoughts, information, and resources of the community that participates here. As such, I find it very disturbing that anyone could plausibly argue that, by posting or participating here, they are somehow going to be tarnished simply because of a very tenuous connection between two completely unrelated companies. There has never, ever (as far as I know) been any discussion of adult entertainment or content on DegreeInfo, nor would the moderators permit there to be, as this is not an appropriate place for it. Since there are no connections between DegreeInfo and any adult entertainment-related activities at all, I fail to see how even our strongest detractors can say anything other than the facts… that someone who happens to partially own and be involved in DegreeInfo.com, LLC also happens to partially own and be involved in another company that happens to, among other properties, have assets in the adult media field. And, for what it's worth, Wikipedia, the largest free encyclopedia in the world, was founded by an individual who works in the adult media business. Unlike DegreeInfo, Wikipedia was funded by and actually owned by the adult media company operated by Wikipedia's founder until a year ago. Just as with DegreeInfo, I have a hard time seeing how there is any meaningful tarnish on Wikipedia simply because someone working in a "taboo" industry had some involvement in it.

In any case, I think that anyone who buys into the hype the mill apologists are trying to create is simply playing into their hands. They'd love nothing more than to silence the degree mill fighting resources that DegreeInfo has offered for 4+ years. And, on an ironic note, once again, the mill apologists actions have backfired; as a result of the publicity provided by their many postings, both MRC’s adult properties and DegreeInfo itself have had far more traffic (and in the case of MRC’s websites, far greater sales) than at any other time in the past couple of months. More traffic, more visibility, more people helped by DegreeInfo. While I realize that none of us appreciate the resulting drama and that a number of individuals feel angry or betrayed, the thing we have to remember is that anything we do to kowtow to the mill apologists simply encourages them; the more we just continue doing the good work that DegreeInfo has always done, the more effective we can continue to be in getting out our message.

To the extent that anyone feels they have been harmed by this distant association, I am very deeply sorry. I never in my wildest dreams anticipated that anyone would be harmed, or that there could possibly be any negative effects on DegreeInfo solely because of an unrelated outside business interest held by one of the owners of DegreeInfo. And to those who feel the need to withdraw from this community because of such concerns, I am also deeply sorry, because that will be a loss to the community that DegreeInfo serves.

For my part, my current work on numerous projects (mostly unrelated to MRC, by the way) are taking nearly all of my time, so I will continue to be an infrequent visitor/contributor. I don't wish to, nor do I have time to engage in further discussions related to this topic. As such, I am locking this thread, (though I've given the moderators who wish to do so permission to post any comments they may have) and I will leave it to the moderators to handle discussion as they feel appropriate.

DegreeInfo is the valuable resource that it is simply because so many people contribute their expertise and knowledge. It exists to help individuals make wise choices about distance education, and avoid options that could potentially harm them. As long as people continue to make use of its resources, it will continue to be a distance learning community that helps people to find good choices in distance education. And, in my book, that's what's really important here

Wow. I happened to come across this article, very interesting. I have never heard more about the industry, to the more political side about it, and i found this article to open my eyes more about what goes behind the scenes.

I highly despise any kind of online pundits or other self-proclaimed paragons of virtue...once the smoke is gone, you'll see that they are the basest, most morally reprehensible and duplicitous self-important frauds and braggarts you ever met...

What a crock of crap. That's like the guy who sells bongs and rolling papers saying he would never do anything to promote illegal drug use. Who does Tailpipe Chip thinks buys his pervert videos, nuns and librarians? No, it's PERVERTS!

and I agree. I do not agree with the porn industry.

[Neither do we, "Kristina," which is why we banned you a month for posting links to pervert websites in your signature.--Admin]

What is the motivation for non fags to post a gay pornographer Chip White's Degreeinfo.com?

I see that Soupbone's wife is leaving him. Might the fact that he posts at a forum owned by a gap porno entrepreneur have something to do with it? Also, why would you announce it on a public forum?

I don't know who this 'expert' is, but my uninformed guess is that he's another e-wonder with an e-wonderful life...a life so wonderful, action-packed and full of friends that his only venue to gripe about personal matters none cares about is a crummy site owned by a gay teen pornographer and run by other millists, frauds, deviants etc.
These people are probably telling others to get a life...

My experience with Chip on Survivor Island.org is quite similar. He has locked several topics there when he doesn't want to have any further discussion of an issue, and has repeatedly removed posts that he does not like the contents of, regardless if they are offensive or not. I started asking too many questions about his involvement in the teen gay film industry and he removed over 20 of my posts then banned me, and I was allegedly a "site owner".? No other owner or moderator there has ever locked or removed a topic. Chip seems to have an insane need to be right. Pretty ridiculous, him trying to spread the blame around, on Adelphia, etc, or try to defend MRC as some kind of humane organization where the models are treated like organic cattle. I have always wondered how these gay adult film organizations were able to keep coming-up with these 18 year old boys, and now I know how, as Chip is also the owner of Empty Closets.com as well as Survivor Island.org, both of which cater primarily to sexually confused and sexually abused teenagers and young adults. Right now he is actively trying to befriend young people who have come to these sites looking for help with and support for their issues. Instead, Chip, Blair, and their gay close associates are trying to indoctrinate these young guys into being teenage gay film stars. Chip claims that he is not on DI more than "a couple of times per month", yet he is on both EC and SI every day. On EC his username is Chip and on SI it is NorCalGuy. He is listed as an Administrator at both sites as well as a Site Adviser at EC.? Chip's buddy Blair Wilson is an Administrator and part-owner on SI (SOWKWilso) as well as on EC, (BlairSW).? Blair just graduated from York University in Toronto, Canada this last Summer with a BA degree in Social Work.? Blair claims that he is a recovering victim of childhood sexual abuse, Chip has also claimed the same thing too.

Don't just take my word for it:

For some allegedly PG-13 hot young guy action check out this page at EC:

There is an identical topic on SI too.

That is a quote from Chip's lame explanation of his involvement in the gay boy pornography industry.

BTW, did we ever give props to George Brown and Jack Tracey for immediately resigning as mods at DI when the fecal matter hit the fan? The current crop of DI losers could learn something about character from them.

They might be assholes in other contexts, but there's one thing we all agree on, and that's that pedophile-pandering perverts like Thomas "Chip" White have no place in civilized society.

PFFT!
Character?
You mean they were the first to stab their former pundit in the back?
Come on...
The DI/DD sorority was more than just clueless people posting on a site they ignore all about...
It was a "gentleman's DE online club house"Big GrinRolleyes
Take Bear's case...was Chip 'butt doctor' White just an acquaintance, or a "match made in cyber heaven" and one the main supplier of info for his books?
And the others?
Weren't all cooing&gooey over their "friend" Thomas Chip White?
