hey kingfish, where's that racism 101 cartoon upthread from? It's genius.

urban-suburban hip-hop settings (hmmmm), Tuesday, 24 February 2009 00:01 (fifteen years ago) link

NEW YORK (CNN) -- The chairman of the New York Post, Rupert Murdoch, personally apologized Tuesday for an editorial cartoon published by the newspaper that drew charges of racism.

"Today I want to personally apologize to any reader who felt offended, and even insulted," said the statement from Murdoch, who is also chairman and chief executive of News Corporation, which owns the paper.

"I can assure you -- without a doubt -- that the only intent of that cartoon was to mock a badly written piece of legislation.

"It was not meant to be racist, but unfortunately, it was interpreted by many as such. We all hold the readers of the New York Post in high regard, and I promise you that we will seek to be more attuned to the sensitivities of our community."

The cartoon by Sean Delonas referenced the mauling of a Connecticut woman by a chimpanzee who was later shot and killed by police. In the caption, one of the officers says, "They'll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill."

The cartoon was published on Wednesday, a day after President Obama signed the stimulus bill.

The Post issued a statement the following day, apologizing but noting that the cartoon was meant to mock what it called an "ineptly written" stimulus bill.

Many critics said the cartoon played on historically racist images by appearing to compare Obama, the nation's first black president, to the chimpanzee.

Leaders of the NAACP on Saturday called for the firing of Delonas.

Delonas called the controversy "absolutely friggin' ridiculous."

"Do you really think I'm saying Obama should be shot? I didn't see that in the cartoon," Delonas told CNN.

"It's about the economic stimulus bill," he added. "If you're going to make that about anybody, it would be [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi, which it's not."

Those SOTU strips would be ten times funnier if the final panels were just a standalone one-panel on their own.

Not bad. Actually, if we apply a Burroughs-like cut-up technique to most of these strips, I think they'd all be far more enjoyable and more coherent.

Good luck working Prickly City into it, tho.

Or the duck.

Is this "standard strawman chick" a regular character on the duck? Seems like women are the same from strip to strip, but it's an odd kind of archetype he's going with.

"No, because we're piling so much debt on them"? You mean, 1/4 of the cost of GW Bush's Iraq war amt of debt?

to even hint that Obama is using fearmongering tactics in the aftermath of the bush administration...

Throwing Puffy under the gay bus, whatever that means (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 26 February 2009 03:09 (fifteen years ago) link

It really points out, and I may have complained about this already, but a huge problem with being a BSRW cartoonist right now is that everybody loves Obama, specifically because he threw out the batshit right-wing government. Hence all the effort to claim different definitions of what "change" meant...certainly there were ideas about bipartisanship etc but the basic promise was "No more Bush" - that's why the most effective negative against McCain was the "voted with Bush 95% of the time" stuff. The only way to respond to this from BSRW territory is to insist, and I guess this has been going on since the get-go, that Obama is/was just a wide-eyed, fairly generic idealist.

Hi, abanana. This is not the thread called "cartoons I think I understand".

yes, talking out of both sides of his mouth, and just LOOK at how obviously contradictory these statements are:

So, a mass-produced auto manufactured domestically, cheap enough for its own assemblers to purchase? You gotta hand it to these guys mocking a President openly advocating the production and consumption of american cars in the DETROIT NEWS.
