Connection Between David Simpson And Urban Tulsa Severed

Alan Gardner has another blog post detailing the latest on cartoonist David Simpson and charges that the cartoonist, fired a few years back from his longtime position at Tulsa World for plagiarism, has been copying cartoons by the late Jeff MacNelly for his most recent efforts. The Daily Cartoonist links to a Romenesko+ post saying that the cartoonist resigned from his contract position, but Gardner notes at least one personal source that claims he was fired. An official at Urban Tulsa expressed disappointment and plans a more formal statement today. Simpson had worked under a contract with the paper since 2005.
