Cartoonist Sean Delonas Takes Buyout From New York Post

Alan Gardner caught that the cartoonist Sean Delonas has apparently accepted a buyout from his employer of 23 years, the New York Post. Delonas will now focus on posting work through his own on-line presence.

Delonas may be best known for a 2009 cartoon where the shooting of a chimpanzee was used in a way that a number of readers thought that Delonas was equating the president with that animal: the cartoon bemoaned the death of the animal by suggesting that someone else would have to come up with a stimulus bill. As I recall, the argument at the time was that the cartoon was post-racial rather than racial, although I'm not still not sure I get that one.
