    The second picture on this thread is a much better photograph, so that's what I would have run, the "crotch shot" debate not withstanding.

    I agree. You've got to figure there are a dozen better photos of her.

    Nothing wrong with the photo.
    About 20 years ago, had the same discussion about a Jackie-Joyner Kersee shot in the long jump. Legs spread and all. We ran it. In color. 5 columns. Not a word.

    I stopped listening to complaints of this nature a long time ago. If we make a legitimate mistake, then I'll listen and work to rectify the mistake. But this? Shit no. I tell them to write a letter to the editor, go back to trying to get books banned and hang up.

    Yeah. I'm thinking it was to show all the stuff and the hands used to grip the bars and the butt was just there.
