How's your neighborhood newspaper coming along? Good. I'll read you what I have so far. Hendersons divorcing. Floozy and Mr. Henderson suspected in extramarital affair. Do you think it's wise to print that? Sure, sex sells.

Beaver Cleaver had one too, briefly. No sex in it, though – that hadn’t been invented yet in his day!

I think the column in Opie’s paper was “Mayberry After Midnight” and, if memory serves, it was written by a budding Walter Winchell named Red.

Uhm, I’m not quite comfortable hearing a kid saying “Sex sells”… I find this strip a tad inappropriate. I’m no bigot, it’s just that I didn’t expect such a sentence in this context. Feels weird.
Dry and Dusty Premium Member about 14 years ago
Now that you mention it, it doesn’t sound like Red at all, does it?
GROG Premium Member about 14 years ago
I certainly wasn’t saying anything like that at his age, and I grew up in the 60’s. Neither did my friends.
