(Reuters) Now readers of Playboy, the glossy men's magazine known for its nude fold-outs, can honestly say they are buying the magazine for its articles.

Playboy will no longer publish nude photographs of women, the New York Times reported on Monday in an article quoting Scott Flanders, the company's chief executive.

Founder and editor-in-chief Hugh Hefner, 89, who in his trademark silk pajamas has embodied the Playboy lifestyle, agreed last month with a suggestion by top editor Cory Jones to stop publishing images of naked women, the Times said.

At a time when every teenage boy has an Internet connected phone and the web is rife with pornography, the magazine has opted to continue featuring women in provocative poses, just not completely nude, the Times said.

"You're now one click away from every sex act imaginable for free," Flanders was quoted as saying in the Times. "And so it's just passe at this juncture."

The magazine that featured Marilyn Monroe on its debut cover in 1953 is making the changes after circulation dropped from 5.6 million in 1975 to about 800,000 now, the Times said.

After its initial success, the magazine was attacked from the political right because of the nudity and from the left by feminists who said it reduced women to sex objects.

Some changes are still under debate, including whether there will continue to be a centerfold. Playboy magazine's sex columnist will be a woman, who writes enthusiastically about sex, Jones told the Times.

The magazine has always had intellectual appeal with top writers such as Kurt Vonnegut, Joyce Carol Oates, Vladimir Nabokov, James Baldwin and Alex Haley for men who liked to say they did not buy the magazine just for the pictures.

In-depth interviews with historic figures such as Fidel Castro, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X and John Lennon also were a regular feature.

“Don’t get me wrong,” Mr. Jones said of the decision to eliminate nude pictures, “12-year-old me is very disappointed in current me. But it’s the right thing to do.”

Playboy did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

These days, a rapper cannot make a comment about another one without receiving backlash for it. With that being said, the lyrical KXNG Crooked visited VladTV to share his disappointments with the game, and according to him, "there's a lack of honesty in hip-hop right now."

After calling Fetty Wap "horrible," KXNG Crooked's brothers added to their comments with us and said Fetty "will never come off as legendary" - and Crooked agrees, to an extent. "I may not like the Fetty Wap song, but I can still respect that's it a successful thing and I can say salute to him because he's living his dream...," he states. "I personally don't f*ck with that. I'm not telling anybody that they should not f*ck with it, I'm saying in my personal leisure time, I don't f*ck with that kind of music."

Watch as KXNG Crooked unapologetically opens up about the current state of hip-hop below.

Kordell Stewart recently chopped it up with V-103 radio personality Big Tigger about a couple of issues that have popped up all of a sudden.

He addresses Bow Wow threatening him because he liked an Instagram photo of the rapper's baby's mother, Joie Chavis.

12351776278?profile=original

"I'm a grown man dawg," Stewart told Tigger. "We on Instagram-social media. You press like on a picture...what's the problem? I didn't know who she was. Regardless, I still press like on the pictures that comes through my timeline. Don't get it twisted."

The former NFL quarterback also cleared the air about a rumor started by Andrew Caldwell that the two had a homosexual affair while Stewart was married to The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Porsha Williams.

12351776862?profile=original

Caldwell later recanted the accusation, but Stewart wanted to leave no doubt in the mind's of fans.

"Who is this guy? I never met the brother before," Stewart explained. "I'm not a gay man. I'm a heterosexual man. I've never been with a man before in my life."

Over the past few months, Philly emcees have proven once again that the "City of Brotherly Love" isn't always so loving. Ar-Ab and Dark Lo made a diss track towards Meek Mill after the "R.I.C.O." rapper called out Ar-Ab at a New Jersey show, igniting a beef that could've all been avoided in the first place.

In a separate incident, the two Philly natives recall the time "everybody ran" but them during one of Meek Mill's video shoots. "Every rapper from Philly was down there, so we went out there to hang out with the rappers and whatnot," Ar-Ab tells us regarding the video shoot where a man was pistol-whipped. "Then that little dumb stuff happened and it was like 'woah, what's going on?'...I'm not looking for no trouble, but I'm definitely not running from it," he adds.

Nick Gordon's attempt to get a judge to stay a civil lawsuit against him has hit a major roadblock after Bobbi Kristina Brown's estate filed documents in Fulton County court alleging he injected her with a toxic mixture that led to her death.

The estate filed a $40 million civil lawsuit against Gordon in in June. It was amended in August, just weeks after Bobbi's July 26th death.

12351779656?profile=original

WSBTV reports that the motion filed by Brown's estate says Gordon's request should be denied, citing that Gordon "has no problem giving an interview to Dr. Phil but asks this court to relieve him of his legal responsibility."

12351779697?profile=original

The suit further alleges that Gordon injected Bobbi followed "a violent altercation with Defendant after which he placed her in the bathtub unconscious, after he injected her with a toxic mixture."

Bobbi, 22, the only child of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown, was found by Gordon and a family friend in her Roswell, Georgia home on January 31, 2015. She was face down, unconscious, submerged in water in the bathtub.

After being rushed to the hospital she was placed in a medically induced coma. Her condition never improved and the Brown and Houston families made the decision to take her off of life support and move her to hospice care, where she passed away.

Gordon is a person of interest in a criminal investigation into her death.

(BadLeftHook) Adrien Broner is almost certainly going to be facing Ashley Theophane in his next fight, a manufactured rivalry that has already been pretty openly rejected by fight fans and media, but the more interesting bit of chatter about Adrien Broner comes from Michael Woods, who says he's been informed of "rumblings" to have a Mayweather-Broner fight next year, if Floyd decides that he wants to fight again, which most expect he will.

Broner (31-2, 23 KO) is coming off of a solid win over Khabib Allakhverdiev last weekend in Cincinnati, and Mayweather met with him there this week to "put the finishing touches" on a fight with Theophane (39-6-1, 11 KO), a 35-year-old journeyman fighter who has been part of untelevised Mayweather Promotions undercards for the last few years. Broner called out Theophane on Showtime after the Allakhverdiev fight, saying that Mayweather believes Theophane can beat Broner. It's all very transparent, but it does set up Broner, 26, with what would seem to be an easy first title defense now that he's WBA junior welterweight titleholder.

All of this could easily be worked into some sort of concocted storyline to put Mayweather and Broner at odds later in 2016, and would even give Mayweather a chance to play the babyface for once, since the easiest way to sell it would be Rocky Balboa-Tommy Gunn style, where the young idiot starts thinking he's better than his mentor.

12351793474?profile=original

If this fight does come together, it wouldn't surprise me, at least. I said a couple of years ago that I could see that as a future fight, because Mayweather might eventually tire of Broner sort of riding his coattails. And more than that, when you have two guys with egos as big as those on Floyd and AB, you're going to get some friction if they spend enough time in the spotlight related to one another in any way, even if the comparisons between the two have become more of a running joke than anything serious at this point.

For his part, Broner is much better at talking up a fight than Andre Berto, even if he wouldn't actually be any more qualified as an opponent, and a Mayweather "comeback" likely would be a pretty easy sell, especially with the potential for shenanigans and dramatic nonsense.

Of course, it's all a rumor, but I'm buying it as a legit possibility for next year. It just adds up too easily, at least to me. What do you think? Just talk or something you could see happening for real?

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Prosecutors investigating the death of a 12-year-old black boy who was fatally shot by a white Cleveland police officer say they are just trying to be transparent in seeking and sharing outside reviews by experts in use of force. A lawyer for the boy's family, however, says the outside reports finding that the shooting was justified show that prosecutors are avoiding accountability.

The reports were released Saturday night by the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor's Office, which asked for the outside reviews as it presents evidence to a grand jury that will ultimately determine whether Timothy Loehmann will be charged in the November death of Tamir Rice, who was holding a pellet gun.

12351782080?profile=original

Officer Timothy Loehmann

A retired FBI agent and a Denver prosecutor both found that the rookie patrolman who shot Tamir moments after pulling up beside him exercised a reasonable use of force because he had reason to perceive the boy — described in a 911 call as man waving and pointing a gun — as a serious threat.

"We are not reaching any conclusions from these reports," Prosecutor Timothy J. McGinty said in a statement. "The gathering of evidence continues, and the grand jury will evaluate it all."

He said the reports, which included a technical reconstruction by the Ohio State Highway Patrol, were released in the interest of being "as public and transparent as possible."

Subodh Chandra, a lawyer for the Rice family, said the release of the reports shows the prosecutor is avoiding accountability, which is what the family seeks.

"It is now obvious that the prosecutor's office has been on a 12-month quest to avoid providing that accountability," he said. He added that the prosecutor's office didn't provide his office or the Rice family with the details from the reports. He also questioned the timing of the release, at 8 p.m. Saturday on the Columbus Day holiday weekend.

Samaria Rice, center, the mother of Tamir Rice, at a news conference in Cleveland, Ohio, in December.

"To get so-called experts to assist in the whitewash — when the world has the video of what happened — is all the more alarming," Chandra said. "Who will speak for Tamir before the grand jury? Not the prosecutor, apparently."

The killing of Tamir has become part of a national outcry about minorities, especially black boys and men, dying during encounters with police.

Both experts were provided with surveillance video of the shooting that showed Loehmann firing at Tamir within two seconds after the police cruiser driven by his partner pulled up next to the boy. Police say the officers were responding to a call about a man with a gun, but were not told the caller said the gun could be a fake and the man an adolescent.

The report prepared by retired FBI agent Kimberly A. Crawford concluded that Loehmann's use of force did not violate Tamir's constitutional rights, saying the only facts relevant to such a determination are those the patrolman had at the time he fired his weapon.

Loehmann, she wrote, "had no information to suggest the weapon was anything but a real handgun, and the speed with which the confrontation progressed would not give the officer time to focus on the weapon."

"It is my conclusion that Officer Loehmann's use of deadly force falls within the realm of reasonableness under the dictates of the Fourth Amendment," Crawford wrote, though she noted she was not issuing an opinion as to whether Loehmann violated Ohio law or department policy.

Lamar Sims, the chief deputy district attorney in Denver, also concluded that Loehmann's actions were reasonable based on statements from witnesses and the reconstruction.

Sims said the officers had no idea if the pellet gun was a real gun when they arrived, and that Loehmann was in a position of great peril because he was within feet of Tamir as the boy approached the cruiser and reached toward his waistband.

"The officers did not create the violent situation," Sims wrote. "They were responding to a situation fraught with the potential for violence to citizens."

Chandra, the Rice family lawyer, says the experts "dodge the simple fact that the officers rushed Tamir and shot him immediately without assessing the situation in the least. Reasonable jurors could find that conduct unreasonable. But they will never get the chance because the prosecutor is working diligently to ensure that there is no indictment and no accountability."

The pellet gun Tamir was holding shoots non-lethal plastic projectiles but its orange markings had been removed.
