WaPo on other newspapers letting go of their editorial cartoonists

Not that it could happen here... oh wait, it already did! ...send not to know for whom the bell Toles...

Three Pulitzer-winning cartoonists let go in one shocking day

McClatchy, citing 'continuing evolution' for the cuts, says its newspapers will no longer publish daily opinion cartoons


Responding to Kevin Siers comments, I believe the Post also doesn't want to be bothered with the grief of a permanent liberal member of the editorial team, as Toles and Herblock were. So they're gag cartoons, and Mike Ramirez, a conservative cartoonist (presumably to show they're fair and balanced too), and Herblock is probably spinning in his grave. (where is his grave anyway? I'd visit)
