That darn Edith Pritchett

 


Hungry Hungry Hipsters [Edith Pritchett letter]

I beg you to spare us the space-gobbling musings of Edith Pritchett.

No doubt you imagine her pretentious drawings promoting topics found on social media are attracting younger readers. Do you understand how many older readers are dismayed to see her silliness featured again and again in vast portions of the opinion pages? Her Sept. 30 cartoon, "The unstoppable rise of Moo Deng, the internet's favorite hippo," is a case in point.

Herblock is turning in his grave.
