Times Series on Hugh Hefner

I am extremely offended by your series on Hugh Hefner, but not for what might appear to be the obvious reasons.

You have cruelly allowed this authentic 20th-Century saint to hoist himself on his own petard with your supercilious, tongue-in-cheek interviews.

The man is everything he claims to be. I sincerely hope (and would like to believe) that history will vindicate him, although, unfortunately, almost certainly not in his own lifetime.
