Craigslist CEO not a pimp, just enormously helpful to prostitutes

Connecticut attorney general Richard Blumenthal has demanded Craigslist remove all erotic services ads. But that's not what got CEO Jim Buckmaster mad. Blumenthal also accused the site of making a "profit from prostitution." Buckmaster's response: The Yellow Pages and alt-weekly newspapers receive revenues from adult advertisements, not his company, and that "100% of our revenue comes from paid job listings and broker apartment rental listings."
If Buckmaster is a pimp, he's doing it wrong. But Blumenthal isn't completely offbase. Craigslist is still the Web's one-stop shop for young women looking to secure an apartment and the escorting gig they need to afford it.
