Playboy has Ditched Nudity
Iconic magazine Playboy has decided to ditch nudity in an attempt to rebrand itself for the internet age. Just last month, editor Cory Jones proposed the idea to founder Hugh Hefner, who agreed that the change would reach a wider audience. Instead, the revamped magazine will be PG-13 and safe for work, while still maintaining its editorial eye on the world of sex. When asked about leaving nudity behind, the company’s chief executive explained: “You’re now one click away from every sex act imaginable for free. And so it’s just passé at this juncture.”
