Jerry Falwell’s Passing: The Cartoons

image

Both Editor & Publisher and Daryl Cagle have short pieces on how editorial cartoonists are treating the passing of Jerry Falwell as a news story. Most stop short of getting their Hitch on, but many are negative.

I think the issue of how Falwell's being engaged might have more crackle and spark if Falwell were held in passionate esteem by more of the evangelicals I know. As it is, I don't think anyone is really leaping to defend him from the acerbic or negative commentaries, at least not loaded for bear with a lot of fire in their voice.
