Do any actual newspapers publish Chickweed in their print editions at this point?

The Saskatoon Star Phoenix still does - I was there over Christmas and was amazed to see it still in print. I thought it got dropped en masse during the hot air balloon sex storyline.

Because all the newspapers know how to humor an idiot when they see one. Brooke McEldowney sucks.

I assume that 9CL started out inoffensive, and once it's been in the papers long enough people will complain more about it being replaced than anything that actually happens in the comic.

Yeah. I don't comment on the older strips all that often, but that's mostly because they're so beautiful I don't feel like I'd be adding anything with my hilarious brand of quippery. I just really love seeing how much effort used to be put into newspaper comics back in the old days.

Copying that cover with the "If a _____ and a _____ can get along" message was a meme that other artists were doing to show support and Holbrook just joined in. You're reading too much into it.
