Erm yes, I'd say so.

Well it's a photo that is rather pointless and doesn't illustrate the story very well but there are many other things to be pissed off about before that.

southeastastra · 12/06/2015 21:11

it's an odd photo to use that's for sure

WinterOfOurDiscountTents15 · 12/06/2015 21:37

Why though?

I don't think Telegraph readers are the type of people who'd copy that photo, but you never know, after all that middle class wine swigging that goes on.......apparently Grin

Erm, wasting the baby's future due to profligate overuse of energy resources?

I don't think they ACTUALLY washed the baby in the washing machine. Smile

Yes, YANBU, babies have died through being put in a washing machine. It's a macabre photo for me.

rogueantimatter · 12/06/2015 22:15

Very strange photo IMO. Quite disturbing.

PurpleSwift · 12/06/2015 22:16

It's just a picture. They didn't actually wash the baby. I doubt, anyway.

CoogerAndDark · 12/06/2015 22:17

It is a bizarre photo, but they aren't advocating putting babies in washing machines.

TwinkieTwinkle · 12/06/2015 22:20

babies have died through being put in a washing machine

They have also died from hitting their heads when falling off a chair and car accidents. Doesn't mean that you can't have a photo of a baby on a chair or in a car. Confused What an odd thing to post. I mean seriously, how many babies have actually died from being put in the washing machine? Going down that road is opening a massive can of worms about what can and can't be published in case of 'offending'.

It's a wierd photo and I cannot see why anyone would use this photo for anything but if your issue is putting babies in washing machines they didn't. It's a photo of a washer door photoshopped over a photo of a baby...

Is it the baby in the washing machine, or the fact that a woman is loading one in another picture that you object to ?
