If you thought that nakednews.com was just a joke, then you should read this report from the Online Journalism Review. It turns out that nakednews gives better news coverage than most local US TV stations, and it’s not about pure prurience, either:
“…none of these women appears to be on a first-name basis with a plastic surgeon. They range in age from 30 to 42 and Holly is proudly pregnant. It’s more like news from your local nudist colony than anything you’d see on the pages of Playboy…

The writer concludes, to my astonishment, “Let’s applaud the Naked News for doing what the Web does best: confronting and pushing back the boundaries of conventional media.”college oklahoma public accreditedfederal union affinaty creditdeb credit landry al cardcard credit ameriquest payment onlineprogams ca accredited in lpnonline marion classes acredited scintercontinental accreditation university americanhomeschool accredited programs catholic Map
Greatly refreshing new twist on an old topic.
Great job. Keep it up.
