Go, Read: A Couple Of Pieces Of Editorial Cartooning Commentary
* Michael Cavna has a nicely conceived little piece up
here suggesting that the great state of Colorado has become the bellwether for developments in the editorial cartooning field. I do wonder if there really is any reason to hope that a new revenue model will emerge at this point, no matter if you talk money straight-up or couch that conversation in terms of opportunities or whatever.
* Teresa Puente at
ChicagoNow looks at a recent
New Yorker cover in terms of its "Mexican immigrants as pilgrims" metaphor. I'm not sure it's surprising that a metaphor like that hasn't been employed before; a lot of the best editorial cartoons repeat tropes but do so in a way that's timely and informed. We should probably be more hesitant in praising the originality of certain cartoons as well.
