A tipster sends us this purported "Goodbye" email from Penthouse Media publisher Diane Silberstein, who we heard was fired last week "because there were disputes over how 'hard' they wanted the girls to look/pose." This email contains no hardcore scenes, so it must be real. Click to enlarge.

A tipster writes in to say that Diane Silberstein, president and publisher of Penthouse Media Group, just got "FIRED!!!!!!!!." She was formerly the publisher of Playboy. The explanation: "She was fired because there were disputes over how 'hard' they wanted the girls to look/pose." Well then, this raises several questions. Did Diane Silberstein really get fired? Can someone confirm for us? And more importantly, how "hard" do you think the girls of Penthouse should look/ pose? We'd say somewhere between steel bar hard and diamond-tipped drill hard, but we like it hardcore. Your thoughts on these vital issues in the comments, please. [pic via MB]
