I like how the guy writing the article just throws out, "I have a subscription". Nothing like letting a bunch of people know you subscribe to one of the raunchier skin mags around. Although, he is a "wrestling journalist" so maybe most people took that as a given.

I wish I could say this surprises me. Exploitation has virtually become an art form and has permeated pretty much all areas of Western culture, particularly in the U.S. and countries of similar standing (so it seems to me.) I have a hard time keeping down my lunch when I see the sort of stuff even People magazine prints (how is it my business what Brad and Angelina's new kid looks like?) and Headline News broadcasts (how does a public awareness of each of Lindsay Lohan's multiple poor life decisions benefit anyone?), but it would seem it takes something like this to prove to the public that we are part of a sick, sick culture.
And I say all of that with an awareness of my own hypocrisy, as I read posts on sites like LordsofPain.net so I can know who's getting badmouthed backstage, whose relationships are in trouble, etc.
The human condition can be painfully abysmal.

It's not from a wrestling journalist, it was sent in by someone who reads the site who's a subscriber of the mag, just to clear that up.

Aside from the whole muder scene. The thing that really gets me is the fact she'd apparantly destroyed the pictures after changing her mind about them. And yet Hustler are still willing to show them. That just seems really sleazy by any standards.

So people are surprised that Hustler isn't "classy". This sort of thing isn't unusual at all. It just hits us a litter harder as wrestling fans. If this was just some random actress that had been murdered, you wouldn't care. There is a big difference between it being a actress and Nancy Benoit though. If it was an actress, then dead or alive they would make it a big deal. But you KNOW that if Nancy was still alive they would simply post a couple of pics and be done. But since she was murdered they are exploiting it and are gonna post as much as they can. They are exploiting the murder itself for a few sales.

It's Hustler for christ sake, doing classless things to get attention is how they sell mags.

It's Hustler. I'm more suprised that they aren't kinky morgue pictures taken. Not only that, but I don't see it as a big deal. With goofy bastards in the world writing snuff fan fiction and terrorist beheadings on the internet, this is far from crazy.

If she was alive, this would be somewhat of a joyous occasion.
But she's dead, so this is very disrespectful and just plain uncalled for. No wonder why Hustler is considered the lowest of the low in the adult magazine biz.

Wow. That's really tasteless. I'm sure that there's some legal loophole that Hustler could exploit, but it seems like a member of Nancy's family should step up and take action against it.

The family is probably being paid for it

Tasteless? Yeah, definetly. Surprising? Sadly, no. Offensive? A bit, but then, I don't plan on ever seeing the pictures in question, so it doesn't really affect me in the long run.
