My apologies for using two pixels to censor THE SMALLEST AREOLAS KNOWN TO MAN.

Keira Knightley released a topless photo untouched by Photoshop to show that she isn’t perfect and make a case for all women to love their bodies. My co-host Howard and I argue about whether or not she actually managed to accomplish that, with me taking the stance that a naked 10 showing she doesn’t need a computer to still be a 10 probably isn’t inspiring anyone. We also get into the return of The Newsroom and whether the writing of Aaron Sorkin and Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino is limited because it features several characters that sound exactly like their creators mouthing off to one another.

    That picture of Knightley was published in a magazine several months ago along with many others. It wasn’t part of any campaign or trying to make a case for anything.
    So she deserves neither praise for a point well made nor censure for one made badly as there was no attempt to make a point in the first place. The accompanying text in the magazine does not go in this direction at all.
    It’s others who have – with a few months of delay – picked the story and made it fit their agendas.
