The Supreme Court nook
WPWG Comics Division *poof*
I was up at this exhibit again yesterday, and have my review partially written. Fortunately I can assume a deeper level of knowledge than the WaPo critic should, so we don't overlap much.
Ralph Steadman, longtime illustrator of the corrupt, debauched and morbidly fascinating, is the subject of an enlivening survey at American University Museum.
Kudos to the immensely talented Ann Telnaes. Not only are her cartoons exquisitely drawn, but her commentary is always on point, too. Her Oct. 24 cartoon, "Elon Musk, Mr. Trump's fellow con man," summed up so much of what is wrong with our election process. Her Oct. 9 cartoon on the Supreme Court's new term was amazing.
Please keep Telnaes front and center.
Debra McDonald, Washington
Please make Ann Telnaes the daily editorial cartoonist for The Post. Her work is timely, pithy, amusing and reflective of the traditional slant of the newspaper (unlike Michael Ramirez's work). She is the heir apparent to Herblock and Tom Toles. You can put all the others in The Drawing Board on Saturday, where they used to be. Edith Pritchett's work, which now takes up that space, seems better suited to the Style section than the Opinion pages.
Miriam R. Miller, Arlington
I have to let you know how very upset I am with the political cartoons. I've already registered my complaints about Edith Pritchett. Michael Ramirez is snarky! And Lisa Benson's Oct. 30 cartoon was insulting. Demeaning. A frightened Democrat clutches their teddy bear as a psychiatrist asks, "These Nazis and fascists ... are they in the room with us now?" As a lifelong student of World War II, I was deeply offended by this depiction. Wasn't it former Trump appointees John F. Kelly and Mark A. Milley who said Trump is a fascist? Their opinion is nonsense? Ann Telnaes is spot-on and as close to Tom Toles or Herblock as you could find. Why can't she be your daily political cartoonist? Show a sampling from other cartoons (even Ramirez) on the weekend. I haven't canceled my subscription, as my friends and relatives have, but trust me, I feel it coming.
I had to smile when I saw Edith Pritchett's Oct. 21 cartoon, "The false memories of 'the father of IVF.'" She included Rosalind Franklin along with James Watson and Francis Crick in the discovery of DNA's structure. Way to go, girl!
Carol D'Arezzo, Haymarket
