Wall Street Journal/华尔街日报:

Hugh Hefner, the founder of Playboy magazine who revolutionized publishing and helped usher in the sexual revolution with a vision of beauty, sophistication and the libertine lifestyle that reflected the desires of the postwar generation, died Wednesday at the age of 91.

Fox News/福克斯新闻:

Hefner indeed was a pioneer. He was the force behind the mainstream objectification of women, someone who paid them to take their clothes off and convinced them it was empowering to do so, using the same arguments pornographers use for the same goals.

Hef ran the Playboy mansion like a glorified brothel that catered to the rich and famous.

Mark Brodsky

Pretty sure that many guys wouldn't have minded living Hef's life!

Alan kelman

All else aside, give the man credit for being open and honest about what he believed and what he did.

Julia Chang

I have to praise him for his savvy when he created his business. His ‘inventory’ and concept were as simple as showing beautiful women and inviting curiosity of sex. He built an empire and lived a good life. Smart man.
