Council Press Office Preserves the Head on a Gotbaum Story, But Edits the Body

The story is fine. The graphic, apparently, isn’t.

On Friday, the New York Post ran a story about Betsy Gotbaum, which included an image of Gotbaum’s face on top of a baby’s body.

Today, when the City Council press office distributed a clips packet to members, they included that July 3, 2009 story, but edited the image.

Above is a photocopy of the news story as distributed by the Council’s press office, and forwarded to me by a reader.
