Louisville Cartoonist Slot Still Open

Here's a nice piece of follow-up work by David Astor at Editor & Publisher: the editorial cartooning gig at the Louisville Courier-Journal remains open months after Nick Anderson's departure for Houston. E&P reports that the paper has used some syndicated work and a few cartoons by local artists. This is important because of the depressing trend of major paper editorial cartooning positions closing down, and the belief at the time of Anderson's departure that his position in Louisville was not dependant on his being there. In fact, with this article confirming they haven't even advertised for a new cartoonist, I would think this position is gone despite the uncertainty expressed.
