GOTTA LOVE THEM JOURNALISTS

I was going through one of my boxes of random stuff this afternoon and I came across a New York Times I kept from January 6, 2006. [Actually I was in Gambier at the time for some friends’ wedding and visiting Dr. S – see link to the right for her blog]

Anyway… I kept it for one reason only. It is perhaps the greatest headline I have ever seen. [See image above]

If you are interested in the story here is a link to the NYT article. The long and short of it is about questions NYC health officials have regarding metzitzah b’peh. Mostly I was – and still am – stunned that that headline passed by the editor. In fact, the online version – as you might see – has a new headline.

Someone apparently got wise...
