I don't always agree with her position on these issues. I have disparate
thoughts about her undercover work and Playboy Bunny years.
Journalistically, I think she did a fine job especially in light of how
women presented themselves to the world as tits and ass serving men. On the

The host's (I suppose he was the journalist) commentary at the end of the

diverse than our sexuality. This certainly puts the assumed "group"
mentality at bay.
