In regards to the Latuff piece, stories about Islamic terrorism get about 4.5x as much coverage as terrorism committed by other groups. http://www.npr.org/2017/06/19/532963059/when-is-it-terrorism-how-the-media-covers-attacks-by-muslim-perpetrators

Pants Donkey posted:The SCOTUS ruled that offensive names can be trademarked. I think it was a band of Asian people named "The Slants" which is...yeah, but from what I saw they're a band of Asian people so people weren't clutching their pearls as much as Lester would like to believe. And also that having your trademark revoked doesn't mean you can't keep using it, it just means anyone else can use it as well and you can't stop them at the federal level.

I'm usually way into Lubchansky but this one was way too wordy for too little payoff and would have been much better if it was only the last panel

I can appreciate the message but this isn't really how gerrymandering works. Republicans don't want to create a bunch of all-Republican districts, they set it so there's a small number of overwhelmingly Democratic districts and a whole bunch of districts where Republicans have a slight majority.

After spending most of the 20th Century Russian-hunting, you'd have thought the Republicans would have a bit of sympathy.

If you want to increase your readership, the PG needs to fire Rob Rodgers and hire Ben Garrison. If you saw the quality of his work in content and drawing style, you would drop Rodgers in a heartbeat. Thank you.

 1"If those dumb hypocritical broads stopped using Uber then they couldn't sexually harass any women, problem solved."- Ted Rall  2Yeah, Branco, most investigations are trying to find illegal acts in order to prosecute someone.  3Someone seems salty about how clean Obama's administration was. Not even enough dirt to start an investigation.  4Peak JRROSE. At least he didn't draw the college mascot crying.

Erenthal posted:It's really the most transparent concern trolling. "So you think we should cut down on CO2 emssions huh? But I see you exhaling it right now!" Considering the source, you're definitely right. But it's true that air travel is a huge source of emissions and it is a bad look for conferences on climate change to be that carbon-positive. I know this because people who actually care talk about it, and talk about what they can do to improve it (a step Tinsley is obviously not interested in). Frankly they should just start a forum.

Chagrin Falls, OH is where Bill Watterson grew up and it's where Calvin and Hobbes is (effectively) set. Is there a reference here that I'm not getting, or did Bolling just pick that small town in Ohio coincidentally?

I know what chagrin means, thanks. In the context of a comic strip it's potentially got deeper connotations.

To be fair, all criminal investigations should begin with a firm idea of what they're going to find. You can't investigate someone "just because". To be accurate, this one did know what it was going to find and all they're discovering is the details.

Remember that episode of Law & Order? Detectives Briscoe and Green found a dead body behind a warehouse, but there was no evidence in the immediate vicinity that was easily visible. They shrugged, and went to get some pastrami on rye, don't trim the fat.  Executive producer Dick Wolf

Bolling's had a few strips in/titled Chagrin Falls and it's always about that grumpy bald guy rejecting lefty solutions and cutting his own throat. He probably happened across the town's name same as you did and thought it was funny there was a place named "Angry Trip".

Disproportionate Orphan posted:Krieder wrote an interesting article on using assassination in political art. Figured it would be relevant. quote:Americans who take their kids to Saw and Alien movies still seem oddly shocked by violent imagery in political satire, maybe because most mainstream American editorial cartoonists have turned in such lazy, gutless, Donkeys-&-Elephants hackwork for the last half-century or so. Their British counterparts have always been crueler and funnier — possibly because they have a history of literal, rather than symbolic, beheadings in managing transitions of power. Crude images of sex and violence, gluttony and flatulence, dismemberment and cannibalism recur in the cartoons of Gillray and Cruikshank, and persist in the work of their successors, like Ralph Steadman, who drew Nixon as a malignancy being excised from the heart of the Republic, and Steve Bell, who draws President Trump's head as a toilet. Kreider is still the perennial thread hero. Excellent article.
