Playboy Argentina refuse to scrap naked snaps despite order from magazine bosses

 

Playboy Argentina is refusing to scrap pictures of naked woman, despite magazine bosses saying the iconic publication will no longer feature nude photo shoots. Outraged executives at Playboy Argentina were left fuming at the decision to do away with x-rated snaps, despite the decision being backed by Playboy founder Hugh Hefner.


 

In a strongly worded statement they said: "Just like the interviews, blogs, investigations and latest news in lifestyle and culture, the naked women will be staying on in our publication."

Playboy’s circulation has plummeted from 5.6 million in the 1970’s to the current 800,000 official figure. Bosses claim the internet has made nudity outdated, and say pornographic magazines have no future.

Content officer Cory Jones said: "You're now one click away from every sex act imaginable for free. And so it's just passe at this juncture."
The decision was taken at a meeting attended by 89-year-old founder and current editor-in-chief Hefner, who started the publication in 1953 and agreed with the "radical" change.
