Newsday, Journal-Constitution Also Drop Palin-Related Doonesburys




Legendary media blogger Jim Romenesko has the best round-up on the news that a handful of newspapers have decided not to publish Doonesbury in their print editions this week, featuring a run of strips pulling excerpts from an upcoming Sarah Palin biography. Romenesko links to both a statement from Chicago Tribune cartoonist Scott Stantis and a news report from Creative Loafing on the Atlanta paper's decision. I think this is pretty silly and I don't really buy the excuse that the book hasn't been vetted as I can't imagine that they would have been run after a serious vetting by the editor-in-charge.
