As tributes to late Playboy founder Hugh Hefner poured in, CNN got in on the action as well:

So, let’s get this straight: Hefner’s love of boobs helped cement his status as “a cultural icon who changed the world,” but Clay Travis’ love of boobs sent CNN’s Brooke Baldwin to the fainting couch and left CNN freaking out. Mkaaaaay.
RIP to Hugh Hefner, the original defender of the first amendment and boobs.

Between Hefner and Travis, only one of those men built an empire on boobs.
Hilarious watching CNN pay tribute to Hugh Hefner just a week after crucifying @ClayTravis for saying the word "boobs" on TV.

I am somewhat confused by the same people who were horrified over @ClayTravis' "1st Amendment and boobs" now paying homage to Hefner.

What’s the deal with that?
The irony is pretty amazing. https://t.co/xlDplXreHM

Double standards are fun.

Baldwin has yet to comment, but we can’t wait to hear what she has to say!
