of those sexual magazines were dirtier, if i might use that word, sort of portraying women, um, as wanton, as maybe whores. and that was something that hugh hefner really deliberately tried to stay away from. so i situated playboy as part of the sexualization of american popular culture rather or than a part of that pornographic fringe, and i think that's something that hugh hefner was really, you know, he was trying to put himself in that category as well. really more in line with the way "esquire magazine" was in the '30s and '40s. >> yeah. and you talk about how hugh kind of looked up to esquire in aceps or sort of looked at them as something of a model might be too strong a word, but he definitely took some cues from them, it sounded like. >> be i think he did look at them as a model, i think he was copying because he was a real gap of that as he was growing up -- a real fan of that as he was growing up. he was disappointed in the way in which esquire by the early '50s had let go of some of its sexual emphasis that had made it popular in the '30s and '40s, so he wanted to redo that in

in terms of wanton killing of innocent people at the hands of a dictator. so what is the cost to us of this great effort? i believe that other dictators would have seen the failure to challenge qadhafi as a complete license to act with impunity against their people in any other place. the vast majority of the protesters in these countries are simply trying out for the opportunity to live a decent life, get a job, provide for a family, have opportunities and have rights. abandoning them, i think, would have betrayed not only the people seeking democratic freedoms, but it would have abandoned the core values of our country, and i can hear now, i can hear it, some of the same people now who are complaining about the president being involved would have been the first people at the barricade complaining about why the united states didn't stand up for our values and how feckless the president was that he wasn't willing to stop a dictator from coming at these innocent people. you can hear it. everybody in the country knows that's exactly where we would be. now, wh
