GMC Responds to Complaints for Cutting 'Pivotal' Pro-Life Scene From 'October Baby'

"October Baby" had its television premiere on Sunday with three showings on GMC. While the movie itself drew praise from TV viewers, those who already watched the film on the big screen are not happy that a pro-life scene was edited out.

GMCTV responded to the complaints Monday, saying it wasn't their intent to alter or dilute the impact of "October Baby."

"All movies on gmc are edited for length and for various types of content (graphic violence, sex, language, etc.).
