AP Censors Muhammad Cartoons, Sells ‘Piss Christ’ Photos

The Associated Press defended its decision to not publish the Charlie Hebdo Muhammad cartoons by telling the Daily Beast that “It’s been our policy for years that we refrain from moving deliberately provocative images.” The Washington Examiner reports that policy doesn’t appear to pertain to Christians. For a price, the AP will sell you a print of “Piss Christ,” a photo of a Christian Crucifix sitting in a jar of urine.

After the Examiner piece published, the AP apparently took down the “Piss Christ” purchase link.

UPDATE: From the AP, you can still purchase a painting of the Virgin Mary decorated with elephant feces.
