Netflix Series ‘Baby’ Slammed by Anti-Sexual Exploitation Group: ‘Promotes Sex Trafficking

The National Center on Sexual Exploitation has called out Netflix for its upcoming series “Baby,” saying that the Italian show “promotes sex trafficking.”

Dawn Hawkins, executive director of the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, says the streaming giant’s executives “have gone completely tone-deaf” and that “Netflix is prioritizing profits over victims of abuse.”

“Despite being at ground zero of the #MeToo movement, Netflix appears to have gone completely tone-deaf on the realities of sexual exploitation,” Hawkins said Thursday in a press release. “Despite the outcry from survivors of sex trafficking, subject matter experts, and social service providers, Netflix promotes sex trafficking by insisting on streaming ‘Baby.’ Clearly, Netflix is prioritizing profits over victims of abuse.”

The National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE) said it sent a letter to Netflix in January that was co-signed by dozens of sex trafficking survivors. The correspondence expressed “their deep concern” over the forthcoming drama.

“Erik Barmack, VP of International Originals at Netflix, has previously described the new show as ‘edgy.’ There is absolutely nothing ‘edgy’ about the sexual exploitation of minors,” Hawkins continued in her statement. “This show glamorizes sexual abuse and trivializes the experience of countless underage women and men who have suffered through sex trafficking.”

Netflix did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment on this story.

As it shows in this link from IMDB the Director of Baby is Andrea De Sica De Sica is a very famous name in Italy's film industry. I have not connected the two as of yet but am pretty positive there is a relation of some kind, possibly a nephew or Grand Child. Vittorio De Sica was a Very Famous Director so there is a big chance they are related. This family was somewhat promiscuous. So hard to trace.

I believe there is a strong family resemblance.

Blind Item #2

That streaming service has been taking heat for months about a new series making underage prostitution seem glam and fun. An executive has gone on record calling it “edgy”. Whenever the press asks questions, the streaming service doesn’t even try to defend what they’re doing. They just don’t care.

Has anyone watched the show? I saw it on there but didn't know about this, or what the show was about. It is available yet? Or is it a preview?

Just curious how it glamorizes child prostitution... Can a show depict it, to bring the topic mainstream, without glamorizing it?

I started watching it a couple of days ago since I liked the idea of watching a show of the Italian privileged class, have only seen two episodes, and didn't know it had anything to do with prostitution. Its a shame because I am kind of hooked to it and really empathise with some of the characters.

i think 'glamourising' it isnt as much of a concern as understating the danger, the horror, the degradation, the sheer existential jeopardy

Kill your TV...you will be a better person for it.

Absolutely Gotta stop subscribing (remembering that George Soros is reaping some of that money) and watching it....that's all there is to it.

Profits over victims of abuse? No, they are doing it as part of their plan to make pedophile mainstream. They would do it if it was losing money!

With George Soros a shareholder and former obama national security adviser Susan rice on the board of Netflix shit like this doesnt surprise me. Netflix has also cut a multi million dollar deal with the Obamas.

After Big Mouth, Desire, Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Girl, this is now the fifth piece of child pornography/paedophile propaganda distributed by Nonceflix.
