Larry Wright Accepts Detroit Buyout

The Association of American Editorial Cartoonists reports that Detroit News cartoonist Larry Wright has accepted a cartoons + consulting freelance package in lieu of his present full-time position at the paper. Wright is a former AAEC president and has been with the News since 1976. The story at AAEC says that this was the result of a JOA between Detroit's papers after both were sold, something I hadn't heard happened.

The loss of full-time editorial cartoonists in major markets and the kinds of deals that are arranged in order to keep cartoons at the papers affected continues to be the number one story facing that field.
