The legendary
Kentucky Derby may dominate
The Courier-Journal's homepage today, in advance of tomorrow's thoroughbred race. But the real action's on the newspaper's racy
Metromix site,
featuring photos from the local
Angel's Rock Bar during a recent promotion for hard-core porn site (
most definitely not safe for work!!!)
Vivid.com.
Has the Louisville newspaper gone too far -- even for Metromix? 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.

Nah. The Internet is showing that newspapers have been too prudish for far too long. It's about time papers start to reflect real people, real interests and modern values.

ReplyDeleteSt cloud times a few years ago no longer allowed our local stip club in our paper they asked them to leave. Did they take away my budget no.
ReplyDeleteIt's not about being prudish. It's about misogynism and exploitation.
ReplyDeleteAt least a strip club ad serves the purpose of selling a product. Gannett exploits drunk people as soft porn for its profit without paying the subjects.
I quit opening app.com because the first thing that hits me every time is the gratuitous, purposeless cheesecake of the Metromix pic.
I read newspapers, and IMHO no respectable newspaper publishes stuff without a news purpose. Entertainment features still need to have a point besides just trying to give male readers a hard on.
