[Link-o-licious: Ladies grapple in oiled bikinis, circled link]
Mondays are always a bear when it comes to finding lead art for the homepage, since Sunday is a notoriously slow news day. So, more and more Gannett papers are publishing photos from Metromix, the youth-oriented entertainment websites that often feature pictures of scantily clad women. The Reno Gazette-Journal is now teasing a slideshow from a bikini oil wrestling match at a local casino.
Earlier: in Reno's Santa clause, buxom babes
Got a creative, ahem, use of Metromix photos? Please post your replies in the comments section, below. To e-mail confidentially, write jimhopkins[at]gmail[dot-com]; see Tipsters Anonymous Policy in the rail, upper right.
As a red-blooded American and journalist, I heartily encourage this.
ReplyDeleteSo what? Sounds like Gannett understands its reader base better than you.
ReplyDeleteIt's too bad that the online staff and/or those in charge in Reno feel they have to post garbage like this to get online hits.
ReplyDeleteOur editor didn't flinch when asked by a staffer if there was a limit for boobs and babes on the newspaper's home page. He's all for it and the ill effects it has on the newspaper site's reputation. It's fine for Metromix, so leave it there!
