Playboy advertising in the C-J?!

I always get a kick out of things like these:

Kentucky Wildcats End Table
Kentucky Wildcats End Table

A unique hardwood and glass end table featuring a beautiful rendering of your favorite team's stadium! At the bottom of the table the team logo appears on a removable shelf and the table itself includes a felt-lined drawer for storage. Minimum assembly required. Actual size is 21 3/4" in height and 21" in diameter. $149 (plus $15 s&s)-- available from the Danbury Mint.

Then, on the back of that sheet was a special subscription offer from Playboy: 12 issues for $12-- an 84% savings. Given their political bent and what I thought would be an effort to uphold "community values/norms", I was shocked to see the C-J accept this advertising.
