I’ve not previously posted a cartoon by Telnaes but probably ought to have.

STOP THE PRESSES!!! Murdoch apologizes

According to the author of the recent biography of Murdoch, this is unprecedented.  He predicted two nights ago on MSNBC that we would never see this because it had never happened previously.  Clearly, Murdoch is either frightened for his media holdings in this present climate (economic and political) or he’s changing his stripes. 

“Last week, we made a mistake. We ran a cartoon that offended many people. Today I want to personally apologize to any reader who felt offended, and even insulted,” Murdoch writes. “As the chairman of the New York Post, I am ultimately responsible for what is printed in its pages. The buck stops with me.”  Editor and Publisher

Cartoons you’ll never see in the New Yorker

Bob Mankoff is the cartoon editor at The New Yorker. Several years ago, he was the keynote speaker at a psychoanalytic conference attended by Jane, and he later joined the table where Jane was seated. He had, he told them, recently been at a coctail party in New York where an elderly lady had come up to him to express a personal opinion. “I think” she said, “that the cartoons in the New Yorker have become quite mean-spirited and offensive.” To which Mankoff replied, “Fuck you.”
