interviewed by Roslyn Mazer
Join us as we celebrate freedom of speech and our right to satire with a freewheeling look at a wild campaign year, as seen by some of the nation's and world's best political cartoonists.
Cartoonists have long lived on the front lines in the fight for
freedom of speech. The US Supreme Court used cartoons to codify our
right to lampoon our political leaders in the seminal case, Hustler
Magazine v. Falwell. Decline of local newspapers, explosion of social
media, political polarization and global trends toward populism,
nationalism and authoritarianism shape today's challenges.
