AOL coverup of Playboy attack on conservative women

A demeaning derogatory Playboy article including sexist rape fantasies caused firestorm reaction Politico and a takedown of the article. Good riddance to rubbish.

But then we find via Newsbusters that liberal journalist Tommy Christopher was fired over trying to report on Playboy's attack list article:

The evidence is stacking up quite high that AOL News fired liberal writer Tommy Christopher today due to his repeated attempts to get coverage of the Playboy attack list on AOL's Politics Daily. Christopher had first attempted to post this criticism of Playboy's sick list the day it was published on their website. However, he was surprised to find that shortly after putting his article on Politics Daily it was deleted by an editor.

What's the big story? This apparently is a media-complex spiking due to corporate alliances:
NewsBusters has uncovered a marketing and distribution contract between Time Warner and Playboy's print division.The contract establishes a working relationship from January 2006 through January 2009.

I had to delete the comment prior because it had the same kind of 'imagination' that the sleazy playboy writer had.

No sir, we dont need to 'imagine' rape fantasies of *any* kind. No matter who the target. That's the POINT.
Now go wash your mouth out with soap.
