NY Daily News Profiles Ted Rall

This seemingly straight-forward profile of cartoonist Ted Rall in the New York Daily News is kind of a dream article in a lot of ways, if you think about it. It begins with a serious discussion of the subject of Rall's latest work (NBM's Silk Road To Ruin), and sets the author up as an expert. It allows Rall a platform to respond to his most controversial appearances in the news. It contains several pieces of art, including the cartoonist on a horse. Finally, it ends with a humanizing anecdote -- albeit one about a brutal Central Asian sport -- that links back to the book one more time.
