Forthwith, Newsman Pooley splashed over the first page of his second section what were, so far as he knew, the first photographs of a Caesarean section ever to appear in a lay journal.

Irate citizens charged him with bad taste, with needlessly shocking his readers, with exposing to public gaze an extremely private and intimate incident. Especially voluble were mothers including one whose...
