A mother who agreed to be filmed breastfeeding her baby daughter for a tutorial video is suing a production company after it was taken by a third party and used to create porn. Inspired by her own breastfeeding experience, MaryAnn Sahoury agreed to be filmed for the educational video put together by the Iowa-based Meredith Corporation. The 2010 video was designed to help new mothers and Sahoury claims the producer told her it would only be used for educational purposes. However it was posted to video-sharing site YouTube, manipulated by a third party and shared on pornography websites. Sahoury, who lives in New Jersey, told NBC Philadelphia: “I was sick to my stomach. I didn’t know what I was going to do. I just felt so paralysed.” According to Sahoury, the Meredith Corporation had promised only first names would be used, but it later emerged both her names were, further exposing her and her daughter.
