Can’t Get Political – Rejected Cartoon

by Alex Hallatt

My editor’s right of course. I argued that this isn’t about politics, it’s about bad journalism: Fox news may be far right of centre, but my beef with it is that it is a source of disinformation. BB argued that it wouldn’t be seen that way – it would be seen as an attack on right wing politics. He’s right: unfortunately, too many right wing politicians ally themselves with bad science and the fear of people who don’t look like us.
