The Economist Writes about satire and cartoons, says KAL

FRom KAL:

Some weeks ago when in London, I had a conversation about the current
state of cartooning and political satire around the world with one of
my colleagues at The Economist Alexandra Suich. Our chat ignited a
creative spark in Alexandra's mind. The result is this fine article in
this week's magazine.

I lent whatever expertise I could to the article... it quotes Bro
Russell and gives a shout out to Matt Bors.

There is also an additional piece talking about cartoons specifically here:

Finally... there is a great video made by The Economist interviewing
Ralph Steadman
