An advertisement from Valkyrie Club, a gentleman’s club in Syracuse, was published on Page 8 of our Sept. 24 edition of In the Huddle. This advertisement pictured a black woman, unclothed, posing for the camera. This advertisement was met with dissatisfaction from some of our readers.

I am writing to address these concerns. We have undergone an internal review of the advertisements from this advertiser and have decided not to run that particular image again.

Other advertisements from Valkyrie Club will continue to run. Each of those advertisements has also undergone review. It will clearly state on the advertisement that it is a gentleman’s club, something that was not apparent in previous advertisements.

I apologize to those who felt this advertisement was inappropriate. Please contact me at editor@dailyorange.com with concerns.
