The Week in Editorial Cartoons – A Cry for Help

Crossposted at Daily Kos

THE WEEK IN EDITORIAL CARTOONS

This weekly diary takes a look at the past week’s important news stories from the perspective of our leading editorial cartoonists (including a few foreign ones) with analysis and commentary added in by me.

When evaluating a cartoon, ask yourself these questions:

1. Does a cartoon add to my existing knowledge base and help crystallize my thinking about the issue depicted?

2. Does the cartoonist have any obvious biases that distort reality?

3. Is the cartoonist reflecting prevailing public opinion or trying to shape it?

The answers will help determine the effectiveness of the cartoonist’s message.

Bruiser Pony Party

Oh, Noez!  I haz a Bruiser!

He showed up at my fire escape window on Friday night, just after nightprowlkitty commented that the back alleys were busy.

I gave him some meatloaf.

Didn’t see him again until Sunday night, when I made corned beef & cabbage.

Last night, I didn’t cook.  Bruiser showed up anyway…and stayed all night.

Here’s what he looks like (OK, Bruiser is a gray tabbly, not a marmalade, but the attitude is the same:

Pony Party: for Speedway Babs

There’s a Kossack who lives in my small city.  Well, another one besides me.

I dedicate this to her.  She loves small critters, so I am inviting any other small-critter-lovin’ folks to please join us in a celebration.
