Forbes coverage of top nude beaches is business?

That’s what blogger Ron Seybold, whose blog is called “Half-Baked Light,” is wondering. He noticed the story posted on the Forbes web site about the top nude beaches in the world and the fact that it include a video segment as well.

Seybold wondered: “You need to drive investors to your news sources any way you can, even if it means chatter about taking your top off. In one of the genuine lowbrow moments in financial journalism history, Forbes has put up a video report on its Web site on ‘The Best Topless Beaches’ in the world. They had the common sense to have a couple of young women reporting on this compelling financial news, rather than leering brokers nudging one another in expensive, expansive suits. Swimsuits are business, too.”

For those of you curious enough to want to look at the video, go here.

Save your time. You’re not missing much.
