What is happening thus far is that an article raising concerns has been
published in the AAP's April newsletter, which also contained a "brief
note" mentioning the fact that Dr. Gartner was quoted by the Wall Street
Journal about Babywise.  The AAP has also issued a Media Alert, but not a
formal statement.

And, the May issue of the AAP newsletter contains Dr. Bucknam's
(co-author of Babywise) rebuttal article.
