I came across this as well some time ago. Although I have no data (and I'm
fairly sure none exists) it positively reeks of verisimilitude. As a New
Yorker who grew up during the 1960s, I simply cannot imagine the event
occurring as popularly told.

Good morning and sorry for the cross-posting
I have come across this website:
http://www.oldkewgardens.com/ss-nytimes-3.html
The author suggests that the facts as reported in the NYTimes and used by
Latane and Darling to formulate the background of their work on bystander
apathy, are completely distorted.
This would not take away from the studies and effects that L&D
demonstrated but calls into question what happened to KG.
Does anyone on this list have any knowledge of the accuracy of (1) the
NYTimes article, or (2) the accuracy of this link?
Thanks
Annette
