British Artist Arrested In Turkey
This is "not comics," as the art involved was not a cartoon, but the arrest of British artist Michael Dickinson in the process of advocating for free speech rights provides a telling context for Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's use of the Turkish legal system to provide pressure on visual representations with which he's not happy. It also says that Erdogan has won about $215,000 (USD) since March 2005 by pursuing these "insult cases."
