The phrase "child porn" is entirely inappropriate, and I've had standup rows with journalists who've used it.
"Porn" makes it seem vaguely naughty but not necessarily malign. It's the kind of phrase propagandists for sex between adults and children, such as NAMBLA, have sought to use.
Personally, I either use the phrase "child pornography", "images of paedophilia" or, more properly, "images of child abuse".
