Playboy to Launch Weekend News Show

[John Corn]

Playboy TV will add a weekend news show to its lineup in September with the premiere of The Weekend Flash.

While details were sketchy at press time, the network will offer a recap of the day's general, entertainment and sports news each Friday, Saturday and Sunday beginning Sept. 6 -- fronted by nude, female news anchors, the network said.


This sounds like the samething as the Naked News? It is an internet newscast where the anchors male and female stripped.

Well its not terribly original. But doesn't the all that news distract you from the ecdysiasm?

Desperation by a channel that dosen't realize it is obsolete

The only reasons I have Playboy are 1) Original non-XXX erotic movie premiere each month and 2) Sexy Urban Legends.:lol:

Now they're ripping off NakedNews, a superior nude news format with real pretty women (not plastic surgical nightmares), acerbic wit, full screen streaming video that looks a lot better than many DBS channels, and a monthly charge much much cheaper than the Playboy Channel's.

Not that I've ever watched such a filthy thing on my computer. :blush:

I saw the Naked News on Riplys a few months ago. In all seriousness, I dont know how someone could watch serious news, while these women are stripping. :confused:

I think the news is secondary, just like when you have a Stripping French Maid "visit" for a bachelor party, the quality of her cleaning skills are often not very important :p
