Can we get a category for Worst '"A Movie Happened, also [standard unchanging talking points]"? We need one category good cartoonists can win.

Speaking of, did anyone do one for Inside out?

Unless someone is already planning something, I'll probably host the Gay Abortions for the first half of the year, so start searching for nominees.

Planned categories:

Worst Cartoon
The Robert Gorrell Underachievement Award
The Gary Trudeau Award for Worst Charlie Hebdo Cartoon
Most Transphobic Cartoon
Most Racist Cartoon
Worst Labeling
The Mr. Potato Head Award in Poor Caricature
The Golden Trousers Award for Best Parody or Edit
The Whisky Sour Award for Best Kelly
Back when we were thinking about doing it on a trimesterly basis some categories that were tossed around were

-Worst cartoon about about the time multiple times this year a police officer shot an innocent black guy
-Worst Iranian nuclear deal/"Any Day Now" cartoon
-Worst Hilary Clinton/Hillary's "scandals" cartoon
-Worst Middle East/"Obama isn't doing anything about ISIL" cartoon

Why are you making categories just for Ramirez?

Still plugging away. I imagine the format (four large separate images) discourages people from posting it.

There should probably be a "Most Hateful" category of some sort.
Sure, there are plenty of horrible racist and x-phobic comics, but there are the ones that you can just FEEL the hate that the cartoonist has for other human beings.

Here's something I just discovered. Back in 2008, when the New Yorker ran that "Muslim Obama" cartoon on the cover, the Daily Show did a segment where one of their people showed one of the cartoons that was published inside that issue. The said cartoon ("Vote for me and the baby lives") was drawn by the Animal Nuz guy.

Pants Donkey

The guy is named Eric Lewis, and his Daily KOS profile says "I <3 Obama" so he's either a walking sarcasm tumor or every bit of a Dem shill as his cartoons suggest.

quote:

How is this different than Rachel Dolezal? Both of them identify themselves as blacker than they are genetically: Dolezel 100% more, Obama, 50% more. Why is Dolezal, an obscure woman who worked hard to fight for blacks, catching more poo poo than Obama, arguably the world’s most powerful man, who has been roundly criticized for sitting on his hands when black Americans come under attack, as they did in a Charleston church this week?

If Dolezeal is “transracial,” as she told an interview, so is Obama.

quote:

As I said, I’m not personally vested in this discussion. But I dislike hypocrisy, particularly in the context of media pile-ons against average citizens while objectively much bigger targets stand around watching, untouched by the flinging mud. If Dolezal is scum for lying about her race, so is Obama.

Half-scum, anyway.

I'd say go with a category for the best legitimately good cartoon, if only so this gem of a chestnut from the start of the year can win.



I'm totally for an 'actually good cartoon' category or two, if only as a palette cleanser.
