San Antonio Axes Leo Garza; Ends Paper’s Bi-Partisan Cartoonist Set-Up This article on Leo Garza being let go by the San Antonio Express-News has a boring and sadly predictable ax to grind, but it's the first one that I can recall seeing that notes both Garza's loss of employment and that Garza and John Branch constituted a conservative/liberal team approach to having cartoons on the newspaper page. Branch, identified as the liberal half of that pair by the article, remains on staff.
