Go, Read: Trudeau In Yale Daily News

Garry Trudeau doesn't do a whole lot of interviews; in fact, I don't think I recall him ever doing a really, really long one, and I know that he politely declined to interview with The Comics Journal on more than one occasion. This profile in Trudeau launching platform Yale Daily News that seems to be driven by a rare multi-topic interview ends up being a bit more noteworthy for the rarity of such material. Again, the most fascinating stuff is about the Iraq war strips, with Trudeau himself making the point about how much his perspective has changed from the BD and Nguyen Van Phred's "commonality of enemies" storyline to the more recent involved thread with BD being injured and Iraq and his long road to recovery.
