Joe Dail’s Stepdaughter
March 5, 2008 – 8:49 pm
This one is quite odd. A man took his 14 year old daughter on a camping trip with his wife (the girl’s step-mother) and later the step-mother posted the pictures on her MySpace page. The pictures included photos of the 14 year old in her bikini, though none of the pictures could be considered inappropriate.
The step-father, Joe Dail, didn’t like his step-daughter’s photos being posted in a public forum like that, so he went to the news to tell the story. The result? The newscast showed all of the pictures in question, as well as showed a link to the MySpace page where they were hosted.
The story was then picked up by other sites (such as Fark) and promoted even further. As of now, the news video has been viewed almost 30,000 times by Fark users, as well as presumably thousands of times by other people.
It was obviously a slow news day for them to waste their time showing this, but it was a pretty funny newscast. At one point, they tried to scare their viewers by showing “how easy it is to steal pictures and do whatever you want with them”. The horrors!
At one point, Mr. Dail said “there could be somebody that could see these pictures and find her and do whatever that they want to do to her”. They couldn’t find her before? Or it’s harder to find her now that they’ve shown the photos all over the news?

The story needs some clarification relationship wise. Joe Dail is the Step-Father, he is married to the girl’s mother. The pictures were taken while on vacation with her father, (not Joe Dail) and her step-mother. The pictures appeared on the step-mother’s my space page.
It was very confusing to read it the way it was written.

Bob - Thanks for your feedback. I’ve tweaked the wording of the story a bit. Let me know what you think.

Too many parents and pronouns, I would add the following edits: [] It will never be perfect, but I think this clears it up a bit, nice blog.
