OFF THE VINE: Nothing but the naked truth
<p>With the industry pretty much tanking around us, it looks like the </p><p>crazy world of online news doesn't feel it has much left to lose. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Vine has heard that an online news service is now looking for </p><p>journalists with balls. The one thing not required is experience. </p><p>However, applicants must be fit and attractive to audition for the </p><p>position of "nude newscasters". </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Lest anyone accuses NakedNews.com of being sexist, the company is every </p><p>bit an equal opportunity employer: both men and women ready to bare all </p><p>are welcome to apply. "With men added to the programme, NakedNews.com </p><p>will truly be the news programme with nothing to hide," it said. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>The website, which is only accessible to those over 18, is "presented </p><p>uncensored and without bias," it went on to add. While auditions (taking </p><p>place in Canada) are not expected to involve much nudity, applicants are </p><p>requested to bring along scanty swimsuits for the script-reading part. </p><p><BR><BR> </p>
