So what's new?

Facts:
AGENTS: are in the biz to make money
PRODUCERS: likewise.
MODELS: same
This is all obvious but there is a fly in the ointment - few tell the WHOLE truth. Far too many times, models are sent to a job having being told one thing and then discovering that it involves something else.
The fault lies with both Producers and Agents.
A girl/boy entering this biz should be told EXACTLY the pluses(which ALWAYS happens) and the minuses(EXTREMELY rarely).
Certificates are easy to forge, foget or just overlook. Until this is addresed in a highly responsible & Secure way, the status quo will continue.
Nowadays, MORALITY is an insignificant part of this industry
To use an example from another post, Dick Nasty is mentioned:
Richard Sheed, to give him his correct name, was featured in the infamous TV program with Max Hardcore and everyone went into the usual flutters and horrifics. BUT STILL he reigns and people send kids to him.
Sure, it is a tough commercial world out there. However, the current situation just may (although I doubt it) force certain people to have a long hard look at themselves.
